Diary - Fat count concern

Chris_Zuni

Hello, I'm currently in a diet and my nutrition coach recommended I eat no more than 42 grams of fat per day. Now I was checking the Macros section in the diary and I thought "Fat" was a total of all fats, but today I noticed that Fat had 35 g and Saturated had 49 g. Does that mean I have to sum both for total fat? I really don't think I'm eating almost 80 g of Fat. Please help.

I think you've chosen some incorrect entries. Total fat should never be lower than a specific type of fat (for example saturated fat).
The food database is crowdsourced, which means there are many entries with incorrect data.

Thank you, Lietchi, I checked all the entries for the day and found out it was the milk, the one I was chosing had 0 fat but like 18 g of saturated, y deleted and selected another option for the same brand. Issue fixed!
