Saturated fat intake should be less than 10% total calorie intake & replaced with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fat (PUFA) according to 2020–2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
Saturated fat increases LDL "bad" cholesterol
The Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA), 2020–2025 recommend that saturated fat should provide no more than 10% of calories for everyone over 2 years of age. Use this app to achieve this.
The app will guide you to set your target daily saturated fat intake based on your chosen calorie intake (or the default based on your age and sex) and the percentage of calorie intake you wish to be provided by saturated fat. Both calorie and saturated fat targets can be changed at any time.
