[Recommended Amount Per Day] The USDA recommends limiting your saturated fat intake to a maximum of 10% of your total calorie intake, or a maximum of 1/3 of your total fat intake (which is basically the same thing if you follow the above recommendation for total fat). The American Heart Association's saturated fat recommendations are a bit lower, suggesting a maximum of 7% of your total calorie intake. [Sources] Animal and poultry fat. Milk, cheese, butter and other dairy products. Most typical junk food (candy bars, chips and similar snack foods, pastries, cookies, desserts, etc.) and fast food items. [Description]
