I have long been a fan of rye bread without knowing it is highly recommended for satiety. I eat rye bread first of all because I like it and secondly because as a diabetic I stay away from refined breads. I have learned recently that studies show hearty rye bread does a better job at encouraging satiety and reducing post-meal insulin levels compared to standard grocery store breads. Credit goes to the structural differences and extra fiber in rye bread. By the way, a slice of pure rye bread can have up to 5 grams of fiber. If you haven't tried rye bread for sandwiches, give it a try.
