    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

    Can someone with celiac eat almond flour?
    Yes, someone with celiac disease can generally eat almond flour. Almond flour is naturally gluten-free, as it's made solely from ground almonds. It's a popular alternative flour for those avoiding gluten. However, as with any product, it's important to check labels to ensure there's no cross-contamination with gluten-containing ingredients during processing.
    What's the difference between almond flour and almond meal?
    Almond flour and almond meal are both made from ground almonds, but they differ in texture and processing. Almond flour is typically made from blanched almonds (with skins removed) and is ground more finely, resulting in a lighter, more powdery consistency. Almond meal, on the other hand, is usually made from whole almonds with the skins intact and has a coarser texture. Due to these differences, almond flour is often preferred for delicate baked goods, while almond meal works well in heartier recipes or as a breading alternative.
    Can you substitute almond meal for gluten-free flour?
    Yes, you can often substitute almond meal for gluten-free flour in many recipes. However, almond meal has different properties than typical gluten-free flour blends, so the substitution may not always be one-to-one. Almond meal tends to add moisture and density to baked goods, which can affect texture and baking time. It's best to experiment and adjust other ingredients as needed when making this substitution.
    Can celiacs eat almonds?
    Yes, celiacs can generally eat almonds. Almonds are naturally gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease to consume. However, it's important to ensure that the almonds are not processed in facilities that also handle gluten-containing products to avoid cross-contamination. Always check labels and choose certified gluten-free almonds if you have any concerns.
