Health Information
Benefits of Macallan

Low in Carbohydrates:
Macallan whisky, like other spirits, contains virtually no carbohydrates or sugars when consumed neat or with low-calorie mixers like soda water. This makes whisky a better option for those watching their carbohydrate or sugar intake compared to sugary cocktails or beer.

Antioxidant Properties:
Whisky, including Macallan, contains antioxidants such as ellagic acid, a compound found in the oak casks used for aging. Ellagic acid can help neutralize free radicals in the body, potentially reducing oxidative stress and protecting cells from damage. While whisky contains small amounts of antioxidants, they are much lower than those found in fruits, vegetables, or tea.

Rich in Flavors from Oak Aging:
Macallan whisky is aged in oak casks, which imparts a variety of flavors and compounds, such as tannins, vanillin, and lignin, that contribute to the whisky’s complexity. While these compounds primarily affect flavor, oak-aged spirits may contain small amounts of phenolic compounds that can have mild antioxidant effects.

Low in Additives:
Macallan whisky is made with traditional methods and contains fewer additives compared to some mass-produced spirits. It’s typically distilled and aged using natural ingredients, which can result in a purer spirit with fewer impurities that may cause hangovers for some individuals, though this varies.

Who should avoid Macallan

Pregnant women or those trying to conceive

Individuals with alcohol use disorders or those in recovery

People taking medications that interact negatively with alcohol

Those with certain medical conditions that can be exacerbated by alcohol consumption

Individuals under the legal drinking age

People who need to drive or operate machinery

Those with religious or personal beliefs that prohibit alcohol consumption

Individuals with allergies or sensitivities to ingredients in whisky

People on specific diets that exclude alcohol

Those who are the designated driver for a groupRemember, responsible drinking is key for those who do choose to consume alcohol. If you have any specific health concerns, it’s always best to consult with a healthcare professional.

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 1

Which scotches are gluten-free?
Most scotch whiskies are naturally gluten-free. The distillation process removes gluten proteins from the final product, even when made from gluten-containing grains like barley. However, some people with severe gluten sensitivities may still react to trace amounts. To be absolutely certain, look for scotches specifically labeled as gluten-free or made from gluten-free grains like corn or sorghum.
What whiskey is 100% gluten-free?
Whiskey made from corn, such as bourbon, is generally considered gluten-free. Pure distilled spirits, including whiskey, are typically gluten-free due to the distillation process. However, some whiskeys may contain added flavorings or colorings that could introduce gluten. To be absolutely certain, look for whiskeys specifically labeled as gluten-free or made from 100% non-gluten grains like corn, sorghum, or rice.
Can celiacs drink single malt whisky?
Celiac disease sufferers can generally drink single malt whisky safely. This is because the distillation process removes gluten proteins from the final product. Single malt whisky is made from malted barley, but the gluten is left behind in the distillation process. However, celiacs should still exercise caution and consult their doctor, as individual sensitivities can vary.
What whiskey is not gluten-free?
Most whiskeys are generally considered gluten-free due to the distillation process. However, some whiskeys may contain trace amounts of gluten if they are flavored or have additives after distillation. Specifically, whiskeys made from wheat, barley, or rye (which contain gluten) may not be suitable for those with severe gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. It's always best for individuals with gluten concerns to check with the manufacturer or opt for whiskeys made from naturally gluten-free grains like corn or sorghum.
