    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 barley soup have gluten?
    Yes, barley soup typically contains gluten. Barley is a gluten-containing grain, along with wheat and rye. People with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should avoid barley soup. To make a gluten-free version, alternative grains like rice or quinoa can be used instead of barley.
    What soup grains are gluten-free?

Corn, whether used as kernels or ground into meal, is naturally gluten-free and works well in many soup recipes. Buckwheat, despite its name, is not related to wheat and is a nutritious gluten-free grain that can be used in soups.
    What grains are not gluten-free?
    Wheat is the most common grain that contains gluten. Barley and rye also contain gluten and are not considered gluten-free. Some less common grains like spelt, kamut, and triticale contain gluten as well. Oats are naturally gluten-free but are often contaminated during processing, so they're typically not considered safe for those with celiac disease unless specifically labeled as gluten-free.
