Fat
The fat content of ramen noodles is high because the noodles are fried during the manufacturing process. One package of ramen contains 13.3 g of fat, including 6.4 g of saturated fat. Saturated fat in the diet raises cholesterol levels and contributes to cardiovascular disease. The American Heart Association recommends limiting saturated fat to 7 percent of your total daily calories and total fat to between 25 and 35 percent of your daily caloric intake. For a 2,000-calorie diet, this means limiting total fat to between 55 and 78 g per day and keeping saturated fat below 15.5 g per day.
