In general, no more than 30% of your calories should be from fat each day. We like to say about 10% from polyunsaturated fats, 10% from monounsaturated fats, and 10% or less from saturated fats.
You can find polyunsaturated fats in a lot of vegetable oils and nuts.
You can find monounsaturated fats in olives and avocados.
You need fat for your body to function, just make sure you are getting it from the right sources!
