Spicy Italian Nutrition

A Spicy Italian is a popular submarine sandwich known for its zesty flavor, primarily featuring a combination of cured meats like pepperoni and Genoa salami. This information is based on a standard six-inch sub on Italian-style bread without cheese or additional sauces, providing a baseline for understanding its nutritional profile.

How Many Calories

A standard six-inch Spicy Italian sandwich contains approximately 450 calories. This can be a substantial meal, fitting into various daily calorie targets. To know how many calories you should eat, a maintenance calorie calculator can help determine your specific needs. For weight loss, you would aim for a calorie deficit by consuming fewer calories than your maintenance level. This sandwich can be part of that plan if accounted for properly.

Macronutrient Breakdown

The Spicy Italian provides a significant amount of protein, around 20 grams, which is vital for muscle repair and satiety. However, it is also high in fat, contributing 23 grams, with 9 grams of that being saturated fat. The carbohydrates, at 40 grams, primarily come from the bread. Understanding this balance is key for those tracking their macronutrient intake or using a calorie counter app. The high sodium content, at nearly 1400mg, is largely due to the processed meats and is a major consideration for cardiovascular health.
