How many calories does an average college student need?

Answer 1

A difficult question to answer not knowing how an average student is defined. If active and female, between 2,200 and 3,000 calories a day. An active male between 3,000 and 4,000 per day. Those less active will require far fewer calories, 1600 to 2000 for females and 1800 to 2200 calories per day for males. Fat intake should also be regulated with no more than 10% of the total calorie intake
