Question from visitor about Sandwich Calories

Can eating ham, salad sandwich on rye bread help control provide energy for the day?


ANSWER:

Yes, certainly.
Rye has a low glycemic index rating (a low G.I index for blood sugar control) and therefore is a slow-burning carbohydrate energy source. The ham provides a little protein, plus the salad helps add some vitamins, minerals and fiber. Overall, it could be part of a healthy balanced diet.

It is also lower in calories than many other forms of sandwiches, and therefore may help with slimming but only as part of a low-calorie diet.
