This paragraph is for the more technically minded. Essentially, if one consumes 1,200 calories (4,800 kilojoules) per day, then the maximum amount of saturated fat allowed is 10 grams (0.35ounces). 1,500 calories (6,300 kilojoules) - 13 grams (0.45 ounces). 2,000 calories (8,400 kilojoules) - 20 grams (0.7 ounces).
Saturated fat is a fat which is usually solid at room temperature and is fairly stable. These fats have negative health effects. Saturated fats are used to help build LDL cholesterol, also known as bad cholesterol. For this reason, too much saturated fat in the diet can cause the levels of LDL cholesterol to increase. An increase of LDL cholesterol has been associated with a higher risk for heart disease.
