Generally, plain chicken and rice are naturally gluten-free foods. However, it’s important to be cautious of any added seasonings, sauces, or preparation methods that might introduce gluten-containing ingredients.
Excellent source of lean protein (chicken)
Low in saturated fat (when chicken is skinless)
Good source of complex carbohydrates (rice)
Provides essential amino acids for muscle growth and repair
Rich in B vitamins, especially niacin and vitamin B6
Contains minerals like selenium, phosphorus, and magnesium
Can be a gluten-free meal option
Easily digestible for most people
Helps maintain stable blood sugar levels (especially brown rice)
Provides energy for physical activities
Supports immune system function (chicken)
Can aid in weight management when portion-controlled
Versatile and can be prepared with various healthy vegetables
Brown rice offers additional fiber and nutrients compared to white rice
Can be part of a heart-healthy diet when prepared with minimal added fats
Provides a good balance of macronutrients (protein, carbs, and fats)Remember that the health benefits can vary depending on the specific preparation method and any additional ingredients used in the dish.
People with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity (if the rice is contaminated with gluten or if the chicken is prepared with gluten-containing ingredients)
Individuals with allergies to chicken or any ingredients used in the preparation
Those on a low-carbohydrate diet, as rice is high in carbs
People with diabetes who need to carefully monitor their carbohydrate intake
Individuals following a vegan or vegetarian diet
Those with avian protein intolerance or sensitivity
People on a low-sodium diet, if the dish is prepared with high amounts of salt
Individuals with gout, as chicken is moderately high in purines
Those following a specific diet plan that excludes either chicken or rice
People with certain gastrointestinal conditions that require limiting fiber intake (depending on the type of rice used)
Individuals with a histamine intolerance, as chicken can be high in histamines, especially if not fresh
Those trying to lose weight might want to limit portions, as rice is calorie-denseRemember, many of these restrictions can be mitigated by adjusting the preparation method or ingredients. Always consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian for personalized dietary advice.

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 ).
