MedGem Metabolic Testing

Have you wondered exactly how many calories you need to lose weight? Our registered dietitians can tell you!

Scarsdale Medical Group’s registered dietitians use the MedGem Metabolic Test to determine your daily caloric needs by calculating your resting metabolic rate (RMR). Your RMR is the amount of calories your body burns throughout the day in order to function properly, or the minimum number of calories you need to consume each day. Knowing your RMR can help our nutritionists establish a calorie budget that will help you reach your weight loss goals.

The test is non-invasive and will require breathing into a small handheld machine and only takes around 20 minutes to complete. Patients cannot eat, drink anything including caffeinated beverages and alcohol, exercise or use tobacco four hours prior to the test.

There will be a $75 fee which is not typically covered by insurance. To schedule an appointment, please call (914) 723-8100.
