1 Limiting the amount of saturated fats you eat to less than 7 percent of your total daily calories. 2  That means if you need about 2,000 calories a day, less than 140 calories (or 16 grams) should come from saturated fats.3  Limiting the amount of trans fats to less than 1 percent of your total daily calories.

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).
