Is Bran Gluten Free?

Is Bran Gluten Free?

Bran is not gluten-free, as it is derived from wheat, rye, or barley, which all contain gluten. Oat bran can be gluten-free if it’s produced in a facility that avoids cross-contamination with gluten-containing grains, but wheat bran and other types of bran are not suitable for those following a gluten-free diet.

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

Can you eat bran if you have celiac disease?
The answer depends on the specific type of bran. Wheat bran is not safe for people with celiac disease, as it contains gluten. However, oat bran, rice bran, and corn bran are generally considered gluten-free and may be safe options for those with celiac disease. It's always best to consult with a doctor or dietitian and choose products that are certified gluten-free to ensure safety.
Is Kellogg's bran gluten free?
Kellogg's Bran Flakes are not gluten-free. They contain wheat, which is a source of gluten. However, Kellogg's does offer some gluten-free cereal options. It's important for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity to carefully check product labels.
Is there a gluten free alternative to all bran?
Yes, there are gluten-free alternatives to All-Bran. Many brands offer gluten-free bran cereals made from rice or corn bran instead of wheat bran. You can also find gluten-free high-fiber cereals made with ingredients like quinoa, amaranth, or buckwheat. It's important to always check labels carefully to ensure the product is truly gluten-free.
What percentage of gluten is in wheat bran?
Wheat bran typically contains about 10-15% gluten. However, it's important to note that wheat bran is not a significant source of gluten compared to other parts of the wheat kernel. The majority of gluten is found in the endosperm of the wheat grain. For those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, even this small amount of gluten in wheat bran can be problematic.
