    Is Chinese Food Gluten Free?

    Chinese cuisine is not inherently gluten-free, as many dishes contain ingredients like soy sauce, which typically contains wheat. However, many Chinese dishes can be made gluten-free by substituting certain ingredients or requesting modifications when dining out, such as using tamari instead of regular soy sauce.

    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 ).

    Gluten Free Alternatives
    Here are five gluten-free alternatives to Chinese food, along with short descriptions:
    Rice-based dishes:Many traditional Chinese dishes can be adapted using rice instead of wheat-based ingredients. Rice noodles, rice paper wraps, and stir-fries with rice are excellent gluten-free options that maintain the essence of Chinese cuisine.
    Tamari sauce:A gluten-free alternative to soy sauce, tamari is made from fermented soybeans without wheat. It provides a similar umami flavor and can be used in marinades, dipping sauces, and stir-fries.
    Lettuce wraps:Instead of using wheat-based wrappers, lettuce leaves can be used to create delicious wraps filled with seasoned meats, vegetables, and sauces. This option is not only gluten-free but also low-carb and refreshing.
    Corn starch for thickening:Many Chinese sauces use wheat flour as a thickening agent. Corn starch is a gluten-free alternative that can achieve the same consistency in sauces and gravies without compromising flavor.
    Shirataki noodles:Made from konjac yam, these translucent, gelatinous noodles are naturally gluten-free and low in calories. They can be used as a substitute for wheat-based noodles in many Chinese dishes, absorbing flavors well.
