Shiitake mushrooms are renowned for their benefits for immunity, in addition to their nutritional prowess, including a healthy dose of B vitamins. Tempeh is high in fibre, protein, B vitamins and magnesium, as well as being a source of excellent fuel for gut bacteria. And walnuts have a lovely amount of magnesium and B vitamins to share with us, along with protein and healthy fats.
