How do I know if I´m getting enough fats?

Necessary Fats

Do not completely cut out fat from your diet. Recent studies have shown that athletic performance and the immune systems suffer when athletes got less than 15% of their daily calories from fat. Try to get 20-25% of your calories from fat, and focus on natural, non-saturated choices such as those found in olive oil, avocados, nuts, and cold-water fish such as salmon.
