Summary:
Government guidelines recommend no more than 30% of daily calories from
fat, including 10% or less saturated fat
Recent studies indicate that cutting fat to 15% or less may raise
triglycerides and lower beneficial HDL cholesterol, which could increase the
risk of heart disease
In general, about 25% seems to be the best level of fat intake for
maintaining HDL and reducing LDL
