Malt beer is generally not gluten-free, as it is typically made from barley, which contains gluten. However, there are some gluten-free beer options available that are made from alternative grains like sorghum, rice, or corn, or that have had the gluten removed through special processes.
Rich in B vitamins: Malt beer contains several B vitamins, including B1, B2, B3, B6, and B12, which are important for metabolism and overall health.
Source of minerals: It provides minerals such as silicon, magnesium, potassium, and selenium.
Antioxidant properties: Malt beer contains polyphenols, which have antioxidant effects that may help protect against cell damage.
Potential cardiovascular benefits: Moderate consumption may help increase HDL (good) cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease.
Possible bone health benefits: The silicon content in beer may contribute to improved bone density.
Potential cognitive benefits: Some studies suggest moderate beer consumption might be associated with a reduced risk of cognitive decline in older adults.
Stress reduction: Moderate consumption may help reduce stress and promote relaxation.
Potential diabetes management: Some studies suggest moderate beer consumption might be associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes.
Digestive aid: The hops in beer may stimulate gastric acid secretion, potentially aiding digestion.Remember, these benefits are associated with moderate consumption. Excessive alcohol intake can lead to numerous health problems and outweigh any potential benefits. Always consult with a healthcare professional for personalized 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 ).
