Too much fat–and too little–can seriously affect your health. The body needs a minimum of 15 to 25 grams a day, approximately 3 to 5 teaspoons, to carry out a variety of functions. Fat protects the body's vital organs, helps transport and store the vitamins A, D, E and K, and provides essential fatty acids that help maintain healthy skin.
