That's a good question. Once I put everything I ate into a program on my phone. I went over my "fat allowance" (according to them) every day because I eat an avocado almost every day. I just stopped using it so I didn't feel bad about it, lol. :)
Hopefully someone will know how to figure that out. I tend to do well on nuts and fats so I think it must depend on the body. :heart :heart

I agree that it depends on your body....and you need to figure out what works for you because there is so much disagreement in the raw food community on how much fat one should ingest....
However, if you want to figure it out, you just look up the nutritional analysis: So let's say one avocado has about 240 calories coming from fat. So if you eat about 2000 calories a day, that's around 12%.
Make sense?
