HEALTHY fat is good for your brain*!
The USDA recommends that healthy adults over the age of 19 consume between 20 and 35 percent of their daily calories from fat. Young children (ages 1 to 3 years) need as much as 40 percent of their daily calories to come from fat. If you eat a diet of 2,000 calories per day, ingest between 44 grams and 77 grams of total fat daily.

What would 50-60 grams of GOOD fat consist of? Guess that chewing on a 5 lb. t-bone would not be on that list….

Good fat is never found on a bone – usually picked from trees.
