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

What bread is naturally gluten-free?
Rice bread is naturally gluten-free. Corn bread made with 100% cornmeal is also gluten-free. Bread made from almond flour or coconut flour contains no gluten. Breads made from other gluten-free grains like millet, sorghum, or teff are also naturally free of gluten.
What is challah bread made of?
Challah bread is typically made from wheat flour, water, yeast, salt, eggs, and sometimes sugar. It often includes additional ingredients like oil or honey for flavor and texture. The dough is usually enriched with extra eggs, which give it a rich, golden color and tender crumb. Challah is traditionally braided before baking, resulting in its distinctive appearance.
What's the difference between challah bread and regular bread?
Challah is a traditional Jewish bread with a distinctive braided appearance. Unlike regular bread, challah is enriched with eggs and often sweetened slightly with honey or sugar. It typically has a softer, fluffier texture and a richer flavor compared to standard bread. Challah is also often used for ceremonial purposes in Jewish cuisine, particularly on Shabbat and holidays.
Are yeast breads gluten-free?
Yeast breads are typically not gluten-free. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, which are common ingredients in traditional yeast breads. The gluten in these grains is what gives bread its characteristic texture and structure. However, there are gluten-free yeast bread alternatives made with non-gluten flours and other ingredients.
