Sandwiches are the essential everyday, anytime meal. To make a healthy, sandwich, make sure it contains lean protein, whole grains, and a hefty serving of vegetables.

Adults should consume 14 grams of fiber for every 1,000 calories consumed. However, most individuals eat less than half that amount daily. People can increase their daily fiber intake by introducing more high-fiber foods, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seeds into their regular meals. Those who have trouble consuming these foods may benefit from taking an over-the-counter fiber supplement.

Certain food pairings work synergistically, enabling the body to absorb nutrients more efficiently than if either food were eaten alone. Other combinations keep people full longer. Examples of synergistic combinations include beans and brown rice, spinach and citrus, cereal and milk, tomatoes and olive oil, apples and peanut butter, and turmeric and black pepper. But people absorb nutrients differently, meaning there's no guarantee someone will extract as many nutrients from a certain combination of foods as another person does.
