Is Food Coloring Gluten Free?

Most food coloring is gluten-free as it is typically made from synthetic dyes or natural ingredients that do not contain gluten. However, it’s always important to check the specific product label or contact the manufacturer to be certain, as some food colorings may contain trace amounts of gluten or be produced in facilities that also process gluten-containing products.

It can help consumers identify flavors (e.g., red for strawberry)

Natural food colorings (from fruits and vegetables) may contain some antioxidants

Some natural food dyes (like beta-carotene) can provide small amounts of nutrients

Food coloring can be used to replace color lost during food processing

It helps maintain consistency in appearance across food batchesIf you’re looking for health benefits in food, it’s better to focus on whole, nutrient-dense foods rather than food coloring. If you have a specific health goal in mind, I’d be happy to provide information on foods that could help support that goal.

Individuals with eczema or other skin conditions that may be exacerbated by food dyes

People with migraine headaches, as some food colorings may trigger migraines in susceptible individuals

Those with autoimmune disorders, as some artificial food dyes may potentially affect the immune system

Pregnant women, as a precautionary measure due to limited research on the effects of food dyes during pregnancy

Young children, especially those with behavioral issues or sensitivities

Individuals following a clean eating or whole foods diet

People with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) like Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, as food dyes may irritate the digestive system

Those with a family history of cancer, as some studies suggest a potential link between certain food dyes and cancer risk (though more research is needed)Remember that while these groups may be more susceptible to negative effects from food coloring, individual reactions can vary. It’s always best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

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 ).
