According to information from http://www.diabeteswellbeing.com/1600-calorie-diabetic-diet.html:
For a 1,600 calorie diet, the Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range, or AMDR, of carbohydrates for healthy Americans is 45 to 65 percent of total calories, 25 percent from fat, and 15 to 20 percent from protein.
According to http://www.livestrong.com/article/440836-daily-recommendations-based-on-a-1-600-calorie-diet/#ixzz2EvVufp8O:
10 percent of your calorie intake, or 17 g, should come from saturated fat, which leaves 15 percent polyunsaturated fat from the total fat of 25 percent.
