Is Ground Beef Gluten Free?
Yes, pure ground beef is naturally gluten-free as it contains only meat with no additives. However, it’s important to be cautious with pre-seasoned or pre-packaged ground beef products, as these may contain gluten-containing additives or be processed in facilities that handle gluten.

Those with certain gastrointestinal conditions: Such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), who may find red meat difficult to digest.
Individuals at high risk for colorectal cancer: As high consumption of red meat has been linked to increased risk.
People with iron overload disorders: Such as hemochromatosis, as red meat is high in iron.
Those following specific diets: Including vegetarians, vegans, or those adhering to certain religious dietary restrictions.
Individuals with alpha-gal syndrome: A condition that causes an allergic reaction to red meat.
People trying to reduce their environmental impact: As beef production has a larger carbon footprint compared to other protein sources.Remember, it’s always best to consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian for personalized dietary 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 ).
