Traditional cornbread typically contains wheat flour, which means it is not gluten-free. However, there are many gluten-free cornbread recipes available that use only cornmeal and other gluten-free ingredients, making it possible to enjoy cornbread on a gluten-free diet.

Can be made with whole grain corn, increasing its nutritional value
May help regulate blood sugar levels due to its lower glycemic index (compared to white bread)
Can be a good source of selenium, which supports thyroid function and immune health
Often made with eggs, which add additional protein and nutrients

Individuals with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity (if the corn bread contains wheat flour)
People with corn allergies or intolerances
Those following a low-carb or ketogenic diet due to its high carbohydrate content
Individuals with diabetes or those monitoring their blood sugar levels (due to its potential impact on blood glucose)
People on a low-sodium diet (if the recipe contains added salt)
Those with digestive issues like IBS or IBD, who may be sensitive to certain ingredients in corn bread

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 ).
