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 is cookie butter made of?
Cookie butter is primarily made from speculoos cookies, which are spiced shortcrust biscuits popular in Belgium and the Netherlands. These cookies are ground into a fine powder and mixed with vegetable oils to create a smooth, spreadable consistency. Additional ingredients may include sugar, emulsifiers, and sometimes flour or soy flour. The result is a sweet, creamy spread with a distinctive caramelized flavor and hints of cinnamon and other spices.
Is cookie butter gluten-free Trader Joe's?
Trader Joe's offers both gluten-free and gluten-containing cookie butter options. Their Speculoos Cookie Butter contains wheat and is not gluten-free. However, they also sell a Gluten Free Cookie Butter made with gluten-free oats. It's important to always check the label to confirm if a specific product is gluten-free.
Is Great Value cookie butter gluten-free?
Great Value Cookie Butter is primarily made from crushed cookies, which typically contain wheat flour, a source of gluten. Since the main ingredient is cookies made with wheat, the cookie butter is not gluten-free. Even though other ingredients like sugar and oils are gluten-free, the presence of wheat in the cookies makes Great Value Cookie Butter unsuitable for those avoiding gluten.
What butter is not gluten-free?
Most butter is naturally gluten-free. However, some flavored or seasoned butters may contain gluten-containing additives. It's important to check the ingredient list on any flavored or compound butters. Pure, unflavored butter from cow's milk is generally safe for those avoiding gluten.
