Bit-O-Honey candy is generally considered gluten-free, as its main ingredients (honey, corn syrup, nuts, and sugar) do not contain gluten. However, it’s always best to check the packaging or contact the manufacturer directly for the most up-to-date information, as ingredients and manufacturing processes can change over time.
Low-fat option: Bit-O-Honey is relatively low in fat compared to many other candies.
Natural ingredients: Contains honey, which has some natural health properties.
Energy boost: Provides quick energy due to its sugar content.
Small portion size: Individual pieces are small, which can aid in portion control.
Longer-lasting: The chewy nature means it takes longer to eat, potentially leading to less overall consumption.However, it’s important to note that Bit-O-Honey is still a candy and should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. It’s high in sugar and calories, which can contribute to health issues if eaten excessively. The health benefits are limited and should not be overstated.

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 ).
