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 Captain Crunch cereal have gluten?
Captain Crunch cereal does contain gluten. The main ingredient in Captain Crunch is corn and oat flour, both of which contain gluten. Additionally, the cereal contains wheat flour, which is another source of gluten. Therefore, Captain Crunch is not suitable for those following a gluten-free diet.
What cereals are truly gluten-free?
Cereals made from naturally gluten-free grains like rice, corn, quinoa, and millet are truly gluten-free. Popular options include Rice Krispies, Corn Flakes, and various quinoa-based cereals. It's important to check labels carefully, as some cereals may contain trace amounts of gluten due to cross-contamination during processing. Certified gluten-free cereals offer the most assurance for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Is Trix cereal gluten free?
Trix cereal is generally not considered gluten-free. It contains wheat, which is a primary source of gluten. General Mills, the manufacturer of Trix, does not market it as a gluten-free product. Individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should avoid consuming Trix cereal.
Are all berries gluten-free?
Yes, all berries are naturally gluten-free. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, which are grains, not fruits. Berries, being fruits, do not contain any gluten-containing ingredients. However, it's important to be cautious of potential cross-contamination if berries are processed in facilities that also handle gluten-containing products.
