The Subway sandwiches contained an average of 784 calories, versus 572 at McDonald’s. The sodium content at both restaurants was three times higher than the Institute of Medicine recommended daily dose: 2,149 mg at Subway versus 1,829 mg at McDonald’s.

For adolescents, Subway food may not be much healthier than McDonald’s

UCLA Health, May 7, 2013: Subway may promote itself as the “healthy” fast food restaurant, but it might not be a much healthier alternative than McDonald’s for adolescents, according to new UCLA research.

In a study published May 6 in the Journal of Adolescent Health, the researchers found that adolescents who purchased Subway meals consumed nearly as many calories as they did at McDonald’s. Meals from both restaurants are likely to contribute toward overeating and obesity, according to the researchers.

“Every day, millions of people eat at McDonald’s and Subway, the two largest fast food chains in the world,” said Dr. Lenard Lesser, who led the research while a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Clinical Scholar in the department of family medicine at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health. “With childhood obesity at record levels, we need to know the health impact of kids’ choices at restaurants.”

There are times when I am on a road trip, in an air port or have a few minutes for lunch while attending a conference that I will eat at Subway or Quiznos. Not my first choice, but its what is available. I may or may not get the oat or whole grain bread, but I will do lots of veggies and no sauces – basically, I’m getting a salad. It’s OK, fills the cavity and carries me until I can get some really healthy plant strong food. (This may happen 2 or 3 times in a year.)
