Tempeh is a fermented soy product that’s a popular vegetarian meat replacement. Whether you’re a vegetarian or not, it can be a nutritious addition to your diet.

Tempeh is a versatile ingredient that comes with a variety of health benefits. It’s high in protein, prebiotics, and a wide array of vitamins and minerals.

A 3-ounce (84-gram) serving of tempeh contains these nutrients (2):

Calories: 162
Protein: 15 grams
Carbs: 9 grams
Total fat: 9 grams
Sodium: 9 milligrams (mg)
Iron: 12% of the recommended daily intake (RDI)
Calcium: 9% of the RDI
Riboflavin: 18% of the RDI
Niacin: 12% of the RDI
Magnesium: 18% of the RDI
Phosphorus: 21% of the RDI

Tempeh contains prebiotics, which may help promote digestive health and potentially reduce inflammation.
