                                While standard dietary guidelines typically recommend 20–35% of calories from fat for adults, certain eating patterns can involve higher percentages. This leads many to question: Is 40% calories from fat ok? The answer lies not in the percentage alone, but in the specific types of fat being consumed and overall dietary context.
