Rye bread has 5.8 g fiber and 603 mg sodium per 100 g. The dense crumb means slices weigh more than they appear — a common source of tracking error. Research on rye and satiety shows it promotes fullness better than wheat at equal calories. Weigh your slices rather than counting them.
How should I track Bread, rye?
Bread, rye is high in fiber. Bakery products like Bread, rye vary more than you would expect — even pieces from the same batch can differ by 25–50 g. Research on portion estimation (Almiron-Roig et al., Appetite 2013) shows that people are particularly bad at estimating baked goods because size, density, and moisture all vary. The simplest fix: weigh a few pieces with a kitchen scale and you will quickly learn what your usual portion actually weighs. This one-time calibration makes all future logging faster and more reliable.
