How the calculation works

Protein in lentils per 100g is a useful reference when logging a portion. This calculator uses the source value for lentils, boiled: 9.02 g of protein per 100 g.

Enter the serving weight and choose the basis that matches your food. The supplied source does not list a dry-lentil protein value, so dry-basis results are not calculated here.

This is a nutrition estimate from a composition table. A single food value is not a diagnosis, and a clinician decides how nutrition information applies to your health.

Protein grams = serving grams ÷ 100 × protein per 100 g
