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 ).

Gluten Free Alternatives
Coconut Flour:Derived from dried, ground coconut meat, this flour is high in fiber and low in carbohydrates. It's very absorbent and requires more liquid in recipes, resulting in dense, moist baked goods.
Buckwheat Flour:Despite its name, buckwheat is not related to wheat and is gluten-free. It has a strong, earthy flavor and is rich in nutrients. It's commonly used in pancakes, noodles, and savory dishes.
Sorghum Flour:Made from an ancient cereal grain, sorghum flour has a mild, sweet flavor. It's rich in fiber and antioxidants and works well in combination with other gluten-free flours for baking.
Teff Flour:Derived from a tiny Ethiopian grain, teff flour is high in protein, fiber, and minerals. It has a slightly sweet, nutty flavor and is often used in injera (Ethiopian flatbread) and as a thickener for soups and sauces.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Does malt flour contain gluten?
Yes, malt flour contains gluten. Malt flour is typically made from barley, which is one of the main gluten-containing grains along with wheat and rye. The malting process does not remove the gluten proteins from barley. Therefore, malt flour is not safe for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
What malts are gluten-free?
Malts made from gluten-free grains are considered gluten-free. These include malt derived from corn, rice, sorghum, and millet. Malted barley, wheat, and rye are not gluten-free and should be avoided by those with gluten sensitivities. It's important to always check product labels and consult manufacturers to confirm gluten-free status.
What makes malt not gluten-free?
Malt is not gluten-free because it is typically made from barley, which contains gluten. The malting process does not remove the gluten proteins from the grain. Even when malt is made from other grains, cross-contamination during processing can introduce gluten. For these reasons, malt and products containing malt are generally not considered safe for those following a gluten-free diet.
Is malt good for celiac disease?
Malt is not good for celiac disease. It is typically made from barley, which contains gluten. People with celiac disease need to strictly avoid gluten to prevent intestinal damage and other symptoms. Therefore, malt and products containing malt should be avoided by those with celiac disease.
