Beano, a dietary supplement used to reduce gas and bloating, does not contain gluten as an active ingredient. However, as with many supplements, it’s always best to check the specific product label or contact the manufacturer directly to confirm if it’s certified gluten-free, especially if you have celiac disease or severe gluten sensitivity.
Reduces gas and bloating: Beano helps break down complex sugars in foods that can cause gas, reducing flatulence and bloating.
Eases digestive discomfort: By preventing gas formation, Beano can help alleviate abdominal pain and discomfort associated with eating gas-producing foods.
Improves nutrient absorption: By assisting in the breakdown of complex carbohydrates, Beano may help improve the absorption of nutrients from these foods.
Allows for a wider variety of foods in the diet: People who typically avoid certain foods due to gas-related issues may be able to consume them more comfortably when using Beano.
Reduces social embarrassment: By decreasing gas production, Beano can help reduce socially awkward situations related to flatulence.
May help with certain digestive conditions: Some people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or other digestive issues may find relief from symptoms when using Beano.
Non-systemic action: Beano works locally in the digestive tract and is not absorbed into the bloodstream, reducing the risk of systemic side effects.
Generally safe for most people: Beano is considered safe for most individuals when used as directed, including children and pregnant women (though they should consult a doctor first).It’s important to note that while Beano can provide these benefits, it’s always best to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new supplement regimen.

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 ).
