What is Tolerase® G?

A new Approach for People with Gluten Sensitivity:
Explore the Science and Benefits of Tolerase® G.

 

Relief from Gluten Sensitivity

In the fight against gluten, there is a unique supplement that stands out: Little Helpers anti-gluten pills with 100% Tolerase® G.

This specific enzyme, Tolerase® G, a patented endopeptidase specific for proline, was developed by  Royal DSM  and has been scientifically proven to be effective in breaking down gluten residues​ ( 1) ​. Furthermore, research has shown that Aspergillus niger prolyl endoprotease (AN-PEP), an enzyme closely related to Tolerase® G, can break down gluten so effectively that it barely reaches the duodenum, potentially eliminating gluten toxicity​ ( 2) ( ​​3 ) ​.

On this page we explain why we are so enthusiastic about this supplement, supported by scientific research.

What is Gluten?

Gluten is a group of proteins found primarily in grains such as wheat, barley, and rye. These complex proteins give shape, strength, and texture to bread and other grain products. However, gluten is difficult to digest because it is rich in proline, a non-essential amino acid. This is why about 13% of the world’s population is sensitive to gluten in their diet​ (1)​.

How Tolerase® G Works

It is important to note that Tolerase G is designed to have optimal activity in the difficult conditions of the stomach. Its effectiveness on the digestion of gluten in the stomach and duodenum has been scientifically proven ( 1 ).

Studies have shown that a newly identified prolyl endoprotease derived from Aspergillus niger can effectively break down gluten proteins. This enzyme works optimally at a pH of 4–5, remains stable at pH 2, and is completely resistant to digestion by pepsin ( 2 ). Furthermore, research has shown that Aspergillus niger prolyl endoprotease (AN-PEP) accelerates the breakdown of gluten in the stomach so much that very little gluten reaches the duodenum ( 3 ). This suggests that co-administration of AN-PEP with a meal containing gluten could potentially eliminate gluten toxicity, allowing people to (occasionally) abandon their strict gluten-free diet ( 3 ).

Frequently
Asked Questions

Does acai have gluten in it?
Acai berries themselves are naturally gluten-free. The fruit does not contain any gluten proteins. However, acai products like smoothie bowls or supplements may contain gluten if other ingredients are added. It's important to check labels carefully if you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
What is acai made of?
Acai is made from the berries of the acai palm tree, which is native to Central and South America, particularly the Amazon rainforest. The small, round, dark purple berries are harvested and processed to create acai products. Acai typically contains a seed surrounded by a thin layer of edible pulp. The pulp is rich in antioxidants, fiber, and healthy fats, making it a popular superfood ingredient.
Why aren t acai bowls healthy?
Acai bowls often contain excessive amounts of sugar and calories. The toppings and added ingredients can quickly turn them into high-calorie desserts rather than nutritious meals. While acai berries themselves have health benefits, the bowl's overall composition may negate these advantages. The large portion sizes of many acai bowls can also lead to overconsumption of calories.
Is Starbucks acai Refresher gluten-free?
The Starbucks Açaí Refresher is generally considered to be gluten-free. Starbucks does not explicitly label this drink as gluten-free on their menu. However, the primary ingredients in the Açaí Refresher do not typically contain gluten.
