Rye
Another example of the healthiest type of bread is rye. This bread also has a low glycemic index and won’t cause your blood sugar levels to spike. Rye, particularly dark rye, is very high in fiber. If constipation is an issue in your life, rye bread is a good choice and can help to alleviate those uncomfortable symptoms.
This bread also has some other added health benefits. It’s high in vitamin B and contains decent amounts of iron and magnesium. The gluten content of rye bread is also lower, so if you have a mild gluten sensitivity, you may find you can tolerate rye much better than any other type of bread.
It’s also quite dense, so it’s very filling. Rye bread is very well suited with an open sandwich, that is, one single slice with your fillings on top. And of course, if you’re dieting, less bread and more of a low calories topping such as salad or chicken is a wise choice.
