Autolyzed yeast itself is generally considered gluten-free, as it is derived from yeast and does not naturally contain gluten. However, it’s important to check product labels or with manufacturers, as some autolyzed yeast products may be processed in facilities that also handle gluten-containing ingredients, potentially leading to cross-contamination.
Rich source of B vitamins: Particularly B1, B2, B3, B6, and folate, which support energy metabolism and nervous system function

Low in fat and calories: Can be a nutritious addition to a balanced diet
May help reduce anxiety: Contains GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), which has calming effects
Supports liver health: Contains compounds that may aid in detoxification processes
Potential anti-inflammatory properties: May help reduce inflammation in the bodyIt’s important to note that while autolyzed yeast offers these potential benefits, individual responses may vary, and it should be consumed as part of a balanced diet.
People with yeast allergies or sensitivities: Individuals who are allergic or sensitive to yeast should avoid autolyzed yeast.
Those with inflammatory bowel diseases: Some people with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis may find that yeast products exacerbate their symptoms.
Individuals on a low-sodium diet: Autolyzed yeast can be high in sodium, so those restricting sodium intake should be cautious.
People with migraine sensitivities: Some individuals report that autolyzed yeast triggers migraines.
Those on a low-glutamate diet: Autolyzed yeast is high in glutamates, which some people try to avoid.
Individuals with Candida overgrowth: Some believe that yeast products may exacerbate Candida issues, though scientific evidence is limited.
People following certain diets: Those on specific diets like Whole30 or paleo may choose to avoid autolyzed yeast.
Individuals with MSG sensitivities: Autolyzed yeast contains naturally occurring glutamates, which are similar to MSG.Always consult with a healthcare professional if you have concerns about including autolyzed yeast in your diet.

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 ).
