Tag: Daily fat recommendations

According to the World Health Organization, limiting total fat intake to less than 30% of your daily energy can help prevent unhealthy weight gain. The exact amount of fat recommended per meal, however, is not a fixed number and varies based on individual daily calorie targets and meal frequency.

According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, fat should constitute 20–35% of your total daily calories, and for a typical 2,000-calorie diet, this range often includes 70g of fat. However, the question, "Is 70g of fat a day too much?" requires a nuanced answer that depends heavily on your overall diet, individual calorie needs, and, most importantly, the *type* of fat you consume.
