What is this food?
Rye bread—bread made from rye flour. It’s a carbohydrate food, and in a 100g serving it has about 304 kcal, 56g total carbs, and 6.9g dietary fiber.
Why it matters to health
Rye bread can be a helpful everyday carb because it provides fiber (6.9g per 100g), which supports better fullness and helps keep digestion regular. It also has sugar (4.6g) and sodium (457mg), so portion size matters—especially if you also eat salty viands, instant noodles, or processed foods in the day. It has fat (3.5g) with some saturated fat (0.66g), so pairing it with lean protein and vegetables is a good way to balance your meal.
Healthier tips
- For your 3 meals + 1–2 snacks: use rye bread as your carb base (e.g., 1–2 slices) rather than stacking multiple carb foods in one meal.
- Pair with protein (egg, tuna, chicken, tofu) and fiber-rich veggies (lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber) to improve balance and stay full longer.
- Watch sodium: if the bread is salty, keep your other meal components less salty (light on bagoong, processed meats, and instant soup).
- Choose whole/less-processed rye options when available, and aim to include fruit or vegetables in the same day for more overall fiber.
