How much fat should I eat?

Lower Fat

Cut back on the total amount of fat in your diet, particularly saturated and trans fat (hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated vegetable oil). To lower elevated blood fats, no more than 25% of your day's calories should come from fat. To get 25% or less of the day's calories from fat, most men should limit fat intake to 75 grams or less, and most women should limit fat intake to 53 grams or less.
