There seems to be some confusion regarding tofu, tempeh and seitan as vegan/vegetarian alternative protein sources. Let’s break them down
-
TOFU
Made from soybeans, rich in protein, iron, and calcium BUT its a processed soy product and is made from the pulp of soy milk mixed with a thickening agent. Tofu also contains phytates which can prevent the body from absorbing all of it’s nutrients.
-
SEITAN
Made from wheat protein that has some texture to it, and it is usually a processed food. A lot of the faux meat products on the market do use it, however it is not for anyone who is gluten free, gluten sensitive, or only consumes whole foods.
-
TEMPEH
Made from fermented soybeans with a lot more texture, the fermentation process adds extra nutrition. It is a whole soy food and a complete protein, containing more than double the content of tofu. If you are going to consume soy, it is one of the best sources as it is not processed, and is fermented which releases the phytates from the soy making it easier to digest and absorb. It IS still important to buy organic tempeh to avoid GMOs.
-
All in all in not a huge fan of soy products but Tempeh is generally the healthiest way to go in terms of boosting protein intake and having fermented foods in your diet.

Other great plant based protein sources include: hemp seeds, Legumes, Nuts, Seeds, Quinoa, Nut butters
