Total Fat
macronutrient Unit: g
Dietary fat is the most energy-dense macronutrient at 9 kcal per gram. Fat is needed to absorb the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, to form cell membranes, and to synthesize steroid hormones. The type of fat matters: unsaturated fats from plants and fish generally support cardiovascular health, while high intake of saturated and trans fats is linked to increased LDL cholesterol.
