Finding Paragraph #3
Fat grams are needed in your diet but how many fat grams do you have to consume before it leads to weight gain or heart problems? Everyone needs fat in their diet because fat is used as fuel. The problem is if the fat is not getting burned off it gets stored in the body’s fat cells. Fat is nine calories per gram while carbohydrates and protein is only four. Only 10% of your daily calories should come from fat. For your consumption of fat grams to lead to weight gain or health problems you have to consume more fat grams than you can burn off. Too many fat grams and you can have a heart attack, high cholesterol, and have clogged arteries.
