Check out PerfectHealthDiet.com. That's the diet I follow & recommend. The authors recommend 65-70% of daily calories come from fat (the type of fat is extremely important though).
The diet is based on avoiding toxic foods and obtaining just enough of each nutritent to bring the levels into a plateau range...............too little is not good..........too much is not good.
They did a lot of research & back up everything with the published studies.

The Perfect Health Diet is, by calories, a low-to-moderate-carb (20%) high-fat (65%) moderate-protein (15%) diet.
However, by weight, the diet is about 65% plant foods, 35% meats and oils.
DO eat:
About 20% of total calories (~400 carb calories per day) from starchy tubers, rice, fruits and berries. Eat as many vegetables as you like; but donât count any calories from vegetables. Be sure to include seaweed (for iodine).
In total, you might eat
~1.5 lb plant foods.
About 80% of total calories (~1600 calories per day) from 0.5 to 1 lb of fatty meats, seafood, and eggs, plus ~4 tbsp healthy oils and fats.
Include salmon or other cold water fish for omega-3 fatty acids.
Cook with butter, animal fats such as lard or tallow, coconut oil, and olive oil; snack on nuts, cheeses, and fruits.
Use spices including salt.
Do NOT eat:
Grains and cereals (including wheat, oats, and corn but excluding rice) or any products made from them (including bread and pasta).
Sugar, corn syrup, or products containing them (soda, sweets).
Legumes (such as soybeans, kidney beans, pinto beans, or peanuts).
Omega-6-rich vegetable seed oils (such as soybean oil, corn oil, safflower oil, peanut oil, or canola oil).
These âdo not eatâ foods contain naturally toxic proteins; excessive fructose and omega-6 fats; and few nutrients.
AVOID:
Pasteurized milk, but DO eat fermented or fatty dairy foods: butter, cream, ice cream, sour cream, cheese, yogurt. Within the watery fraction of milk are dissolved biologically active cow hormones and potentially allergenic proteins; fatty and
fermented dairy foods are safer. Raw milk proteins are more easily digested than pasteurized milk proteins; goat milk is better tolerated than cow milk. Those with dairy sensitivity may need to restrict themselves to clarified butter (ghee).
Dry, lean meats which are protein-rich but fat-poor.
Finally, DO:
Supplement to optimize nutrition, with a daily multivitamin plus vitamins C, D3, and K2 and magnesium, selenium, iodine, copper, and chromium.
Practice intermittent fasting, for instance by restricting eating to an 8-hour window each day, or by taking longer âketogenic fastsâ with lots of coconut oil but no carbs or protein.
