Source of protein: Cheese provides protein, which is essential for building and repairing tissues.
Calcium content: Cheese is a good source of calcium, which is important for bone health and other bodily functions.
Vitamin B12: Cheese contains vitamin B12, which is crucial for nerve function and the formation of red blood cells.
Phosphorus: Cheese provides phosphorus, which works with calcium to build strong bones and teeth.
Zinc: Cheese contains zinc, which supports immune function and wound healing.
Convenient source of nutrients: Pre-shredded cheese offers a quick and easy way to add nutrients to meals.
Versatility in cooking: Can be easily incorporated into various dishes, potentially increasing vegetable consumption when used in salads or as a topping.However, it’s important to be aware that processed cheeses like Kraft Shredded Cheese may contain additives and higher amounts of sodium compared to whole, unprocessed cheeses. Additionally, they are often high in saturated fat and calories, so moderation is key.

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 ).
