Comments Standard metabolic rate (SMR) is the steady-state rate of heat production by a whole organism under a set of “standard” conditions in mammals, these conditions are that the individual is an adult and is awake but resting, stress free, not digesting food (prior food intake being at or around maintenance level), and maintained at a temperature that elicits no thermoregulatory effect on heat production
