Tempeh Nut Loaf


Mushrooms provide your diet with vitamin D. This important nutrient is required for strong healthy bones as it helps the body utilize calcium. Vitamin D also promotes healthy immune function and reduces the risk of chronic diseases like type-2 diabetes, cardiovascular health and cancer. Tempeh is a fermented food that contains beneficial bacteria that helps you maintain a healthy balance of good bacteria in your gut. Eating fermented foods regularly is one of the best ways to boost your digestive and immune health. Tempeh also contains a good dose of protein, calcium and iron. Choose organic tempeh to avoid genetically modified soybeans. Brown rice still contains its bran layer, unlike white rice, which is full of heart healthy dietary fibre. This healthy grain also provides magnesium, needed for nervous system health, and vitamin B6 required for energy and red blood cell production.
