Health Information
Benefits of Caramel Popcorn

Popcorn base: – High in fiber, which aids digestion – Contains antioxidants, particularly polyphenols – Low in calories compared to many other snacks (before caramel coating) – Whole grain food

Small amount of nutrients: – Contains small amounts of B vitamins – Provides some minerals like iron, magnesium, and zinc

Potential mood-boosting effects: – Sugar in caramel can provide a quick energy boost – The combination of sweet and salty flavors may satisfy cravings

Portion control: – Can be eaten in small quantities as a treatIt’s important to note that these benefits are mostly associated with plain popcorn, and the addition of caramel significantly increases sugar and calorie content. Caramel popcorn should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. The high sugar content and potential for sticking to teeth can also contribute to dental issues if consumed frequently.

People with diabetes or pre-diabetes, due to its high sugar content

Individuals with dental issues or braces, as the sticky caramel can damage teeth or orthodontic appliances

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 ).
