What is the desirable ratio of saturated, polyunsaturated, and monounsaturated fatty acids in the diet?

TL;DR: Although further research is needed to determine a recommended ratio of oleic acid to carbohydrates, on the basis of the relatively low rates of coronary artery disease and cancer in both the Mediterranean region and in populations consuming low-fat, high-carbohydrate diets, a reasonable compromise is a diet in which total fat is approximately 30% of energy, allowing for an intake of ooleic acid of 15-16% of total energy.
