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

Is there gluten in Kettle One?
Ketel One is a brand of vodka. Vodka is typically made from grains, potatoes, or other plant-based materials. However, the distillation process used to make vodka removes gluten proteins. Therefore, Ketel One vodka is generally considered gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Is Kettle brand gluten-free?
Yes, Kettle brand chips are generally gluten-free. The company states that most of their products are made without gluten-containing ingredients. However, they do recommend checking the packaging of specific products for the most up-to-date information. It's always best to verify the gluten-free status of any food product if you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Which vodkas are gluten-free?
Most vodkas are considered gluten-free, even if made from gluten-containing grains, due to the distillation process. However, for those with severe gluten sensitivities, it's safest to choose vodkas made from non-gluten sources like potatoes, corn, or grapes. Some popular gluten-free vodka brands include Tito's (made from corn), Chopin Potato Vodka, and Ciroc (made from grapes). Always check the label or contact the manufacturer if you're unsure about a specific brand's gluten content.
Is all kettle corn gluten-free?
Not all kettle corn is automatically gluten-free. While the main ingredients (corn, sugar, oil, and salt) are naturally gluten-free, cross-contamination can occur during processing. Some kettle corn may also contain additional flavorings or additives that contain gluten. To be certain, it's best to check the label or contact the manufacturer for gluten-free certification.
