For optimum health you should try to get between 60% and 80% of your daily calories from saturated fat. The rest should be protein with a small amount from carbohydrates.
The daily recommended intake for fat is 18 grams or less for a total of 1,600 calories. You should take about 25 percent fat of your daily calories.
Well it is required that 30% of calories come from fat and less than 10% from saturated fat. Hope it helped .. < u
As a teenager you do not need to limit your intake of saturated fat. I would recommend at least 10% of your calories come from saturated fat.
Food.
The American Heart Association recommends limiting the amount of saturated fats you eat to less than 7 percent of total daily calories. That means, for example, if you need about 2,000 calories a day, no more than 140 of them should come from saturated fats. That's about 16 grams of saturated fats a day. You need saturated fats to feed your cells. =) So don't cut them all the way out of your diet. Also it helps you eat healthier knowing you can have saturated fats.
In general, 45% - 65% of your daily calories should come from carbohydrates.Example:If you eat 2000 calories a day, 900-1300 calories (225-325 grams) of carbohydrates are recommended.
45-60% of your daily calories to come from carbohydrates 10-35% of calories to come from protein
70%
false
It does not matter what proportion of daily calories come from breakfast.
I can't give you a specific number. The American Heart Association recommends no more than 7% of calories should come from saturated fat, so I'd guesstimate around 13-23% of your calories should be from unsaturated fat. It depends on the total percentage of fat in your diet.
