All the saturated fat I eat comes from meat, organic peanut butter etc. I eat about 2250 calories a day and about 12-15g of sat fat. And I'm worried that its a bit too much.

    I eat 70g of fat a day. Take 15g of sat fat out and the rest is unsaturated.

    if your doctor hasn't told you to cut saturated fat, then I'd think 1:4 ratio is fine for saturated:unsaturated. Just steer clear of the trans fats. But I'm not a doctor or anything.
