how many grams of fat per day for a healthy heart?
No more than 10 percent of your total calories should come from saturated fat -- no more than 7 percent if youâre already at risk for developing heart disease. For a 2,000-calorie diet, this amounts to a maximum of 22 grams of saturated fat if youâre healthy, or just 15.5 grams if youâre worried about your heart. These fat grams take up some of your total fat gram allowance for the day.
