My earlier comments stand.

While anyone following the guidelines and principles I recommend would be consuming a much lower percent fat from calories then typical in this country, even amongst most vegans, vegetarians and raw fooders, I would still not give a number as it takes away from what I think is more important.

Remember, the Okinawans didn't achieve their percentages because the focused on achieving certain percentages but because it was the result of them eating a healthy diet.

I don't want to recommend something for people to focus on that I don't think they should be focusing on.
