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

Does corn on the cob contain gluten?
Corn on the cob does not contain gluten. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, but not in corn. Corn is naturally gluten-free and is considered safe for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. However, it's always important to be aware of potential cross-contamination during processing or preparation if you have severe gluten intolerance.
Why can't celiacs eat corn?
Celiacs can typically eat corn safely. Corn is naturally gluten-free and is not one of the grains that contain the problematic proteins for people with celiac disease. However, some celiacs may have separate corn sensitivities or intolerances unrelated to gluten. It's always best for individuals with celiac disease to consult their doctor about specific dietary concerns.
Does butter have gluten?
Butter does not naturally contain gluten. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, while butter is made from cream. Pure, plain butter is considered gluten-free and safe for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. However, some flavored or specialty butters may contain gluten-containing additives, so it's always best to check the label if you have concerns.
Can celiacs eat popcorn?
Yes, celiacs can generally eat popcorn. Plain popcorn is naturally gluten-free, as it's made from corn kernels. However, celiacs should be cautious with flavored popcorn or movie theater popcorn, which may contain gluten-containing additives. It's always best to check ingredient labels or prepare popcorn at home to ensure it's safe for a gluten-free diet.
