Measure your metabolism. Understand your energy.
Mobile resting metabolic rate testing based on indirect calorimetry for individuals, clinics, gyms and health professionals in Oakville, Burlington and Mississauga.
Metabolism is more than calories.
Your resting metabolic rate is the energy your body uses to keep vital functions running: breathing, circulation, temperature regulation, tissue repair and the work of every organ. It is present before activity, exercise or daily movement are added.
Using indirect calorimetry, MetaRate measures the oxygen you consume and the carbon dioxide you produce while resting. These gases allow us to calculate your resting energy expenditure from your own physiology, rather than applying a population-average formula.

Stop building important decisions on a generic estimate.
Online calculators and wearable devices can be useful for general reference, but they estimate resting energy from averages and assumptions. Two people with the same height, weight and age can still use different amounts of energy at rest.
An RMR test measures your breathing directly. That gives you a personal baseline that can be discussed alongside your goals, history, nutrition and clinical context.
Measured from breath.
Oxygen in and carbon dioxide out provide the physiological signal used to calculate resting energy expenditure.
No exertion required.
The test is performed at rest. There is nothing to train for, pass or push through.
Useful context.
The result is easier to use when it is explained in relation to your question and your professional guidance.
Built around the question you want answered.
Know your own baseline.
Receive a measurement of your resting energy expenditure, a clear MetaCheck report and plain-language context for understanding what the result may mean for your nutrition, health or next professional conversation.
Bring better data to your practice.
Add a mobile, non-exercise metabolic assessment to your clinic, gym or practice. MetaRate provides standardized measurement, a professional-ready MetaCheck report and a clearer starting point for individualized conversations.
A resting test built around your breath.
The test is non-invasive and requires no exercise. You rest comfortably, breathe normally through a mask and allow the analyzer to measure your gas exchange while your body is at rest.
Breathe.
After a short settling period, you sit comfortably and breathe normally through a transparent mask connected to the metabolic analyzer.
Measure.
The analyzer follows the air you breathe in and out, measuring oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production over the resting measurement period.
Understand.
Your measurement is organized into MetaCheck: a readable report that helps you and your professional understand the result, its context and the questions worth discussing next.
Arrive rested so the measurement reflects your resting state.
A few simple conditions help create a more consistent test. We will confirm the details with you when your appointment is arranged.
Your clinician or health professional remains the right person to interpret the result within your complete context.
Better-informed conversations start with a better baseline.
