Traditional banana pudding recipes are typically gluten-free, as they usually contain ingredients like bananas, vanilla pudding, whipped cream, and vanilla wafers, which don’t contain gluten. However, it’s important to check the specific recipe or ingredients list, as some variations might include gluten-containing additives or use cookies that contain gluten, such as Nilla Wafers which are not gluten-free.

Bananas provide: – Potassium, which supports heart health and blood pressure regulation – Vitamin B6, important for brain function and metabolism – Vitamin C, an antioxidant that supports immune function – Dietary fiber, which aids digestion and promotes feelings of fullness
Milk (if used in the pudding) offers: – Calcium for strong bones and teeth – Protein for muscle building and repair – Vitamin D (if fortified) for calcium absorption and bone health
Vanilla (if used) contains small amounts of: – Antioxidants that may help reduce inflammation – Compounds that may have mood-enhancing properties
Eggs (if used in some recipes) provide: – High-quality protein – Choline, important for brain health – Various vitamins and minerals
The dessert can offer: – Quick energy from carbohydrates – A mood boost due to its sweet tasteIt’s important to note that these benefits are offset by the high calorie, sugar, and fat content of banana pudding.

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 ).
