Is Distilled Vinegar Gluten Free?
Yes, distilled vinegar is generally considered gluten-free, even when made from gluten-containing grains. The distillation process removes all proteins, including gluten, making the final product safe for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

Low in calories: Distilled vinegar is virtually calorie-free, making it a good option for those watching their weight.
May help with blood sugar control: Some studies suggest that vinegar consumption may improve insulin sensitivity and help lower blood sugar levels.
Potential antimicrobial properties: Distilled vinegar has been shown to have antibacterial and antifungal properties, which may help fight certain infections.
May aid in digestion: Some people find that consuming vinegar before meals can help improve digestion and reduce bloating.
Possible weight loss aid: Some research indicates that vinegar may increase feelings of fullness, potentially leading to reduced calorie intake.
May help lower cholesterol: Limited studies suggest that vinegar consumption might help reduce total cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
Potential blood pressure benefits: Some research indicates that vinegar may help lower blood pressure, though more studies are needed.
Natural cleaning agent: While not a direct health benefit, using distilled vinegar as a cleaning agent can reduce exposure to harsh chemicals in the home.
May help with nutrient absorption: Vinegar may enhance the body’s ability to absorb certain minerals from food.
Potential cardiovascular benefits: Some studies suggest that vinegar consumption may improve heart health markers, though more research is needed.It’s important to note that while these potential benefits exist, more research is needed to fully understand the effects of distilled vinegar on health. Always consult with a healthcare professional before using vinegar for medicinal purposes.

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 ).
