How many grams of fat should you eat per day?

Answer by  keepsmiling (648)

No more than 30% of you daily calories should be from fat. Caloric needs change based on the individual but you can calculate your daily recommendations based on activity level, current weight, and weight goals (loss, gain, management). For the average 2000-2500 calorie diet you should consume around 60 grams of fat per day.

On a 2000 calorie diet, the daily grams of fat intake should be 65. For those on a 2500 calorie diet, up the fat to 80 grams per day.

This depends on your hight, weight, and age. As a rule of thumb don't consume more than 30 grams of fat in a day. If you are trying to shed pounds decrease the number of grams.

The amount of fat you consume per day should depend on your calorie intake. If you look at the nutrition information, you will see how many grams of fat the item has, and what percent that amount makes up for total recommended daily intake. This is usually based on a 2000 calorie diet, so you may need to adjust it.
