People with braces or other orthodontic appliances: The kernels can get stuck in or damage dental work.
Those with sensitive or loose teeth: Biting into corn on the cob can cause discomfort or potentially dislodge teeth.
Individuals with digestive issues: Some people with conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may find corn difficult to digest.
People with corn allergies: Though rare, some individuals are allergic to corn and should avoid it entirely.
Those on a low-carb diet: Corn is relatively high in carbohydrates and may not fit into strict low-carb meal plans.
Individuals with diabetes: While not entirely off-limits, people with diabetes should be mindful of portion sizes due to corn’s carbohydrate content.
Those with diverticulitis: During flare-ups, it’s often recommended to avoid foods with small seeds or kernels.
People with difficulty swallowing: The texture and size of corn kernels may pose a choking hazard for some individuals.
Those with dental implants or dentures: Biting into corn on the cob could potentially damage or dislodge these dental appliances.Remember, many of these individuals can still enjoy corn when it’s cut off the cob or prepared in other ways that make it easier to eat and digest.

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 ).
