9. Sandwiches
Cheap, convenient, and easy-to-make, but how about healthy? Sandwiches aren’t exactly the healthiest meal option, but we still consume them on a regular basis. Think about what foods are used to make a sandwich, and you’ll know just how healthy a sandwich really is.
Processed meat, white bread, cheese, and some condiments like mustard and ketchup all contribute to a big amount of sodium. To be more specific, a 6-inch sandwich made with cold cuts like ham could translate to 1,127 milligrams of sodium.
To minimize the sodium intake, all you have to do is avoid processed meat and choose healthier options like grilled chicken breast. Replace ketchup with tomatoes and, to make sure your sandwich will keep you satisfied for hours, add some sliced avocado.
