Weight management: – Promotes feelings of fullness, which may help reduce overall calorie intake – Can slow down digestion, potentially aiding in weight control
Cholesterol reduction: – May help lower total and LDL (bad) cholesterol levels – Can potentially improve heart health
Fiber content: – Provides a good source of soluble fiber – Helps maintain a healthy digestive system

Gluten-free alternative: – Useful as a thickening agent for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease
Potential anti-inflammatory effects: – May help reduce inflammation in the body
Supports gut barrier function: – Can potentially help strengthen the intestinal lining
Mineral absorption: – May enhance the absorption of certain minerals like calcium and ironIt’s important to note that while guar gum offers these potential benefits, it should be consumed in moderation and as part of a balanced diet. Some individuals may experience digestive discomfort if consumed in large quantities.
People with severe food allergies, particularly to legumes (guar gum is derived from guar beans)

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 ).
