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

Is corn gluten safe for celiacs?
Corn gluten is generally considered safe for people with celiac disease. Celiac disease is triggered by gluten from wheat, barley, and rye, not by corn gluten. However, some celiacs may have separate corn sensitivities or allergies. It's always best for individuals with celiac disease to consult their doctor or dietitian about specific dietary concerns.
Is popcorn gluten-free?
Generally speaking, plain popcorn is gluten-free. Popcorn kernels are naturally gluten-free as they come from corn, which is not a gluten-containing grain. However, some pre-packaged or flavored popcorn varieties may contain gluten-based additives or be processed in facilities that also handle gluten products. It's always best to check the label or contact the manufacturer if you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Can celiacs eat corn starch?
Yes, celiacs can generally eat corn starch. Corn starch is naturally gluten-free and is considered safe for people with celiac disease. However, it's important to check labels to ensure the corn starch hasn't been cross-contaminated with gluten-containing ingredients during processing. As always, individuals with celiac disease should consult their doctor or dietitian for personalized advice on their diet.
What can of corn is gluten-free?
Most canned corn is naturally gluten-free. However, it's important to check the label for any added ingredients or potential cross-contamination. Look for brands that specifically label their products as gluten-free for extra assurance. Generally, plain canned corn without any additives or seasonings is a safe choice for those avoiding gluten.
