The recommended intake for men varies from 2000 -3000 calories. It varies with the activity, body condition, presence of ailments and use of dentures. Knowledge of the present diet pattern is also essential. I would recommend you to take the guidance of a nutritionist, to cater to your needs. It cannot be generalised, especially with insufficient information.
