According to McCormick’s official website, their regular Taco Seasoning Mix is gluten-free. However, it’s always important to check the most current product labeling or contact the manufacturer directly for the most up-to-date information, as ingredients and manufacturing processes can change over time.

Paprika in the blend is a good source of antioxidants
Cumin, another ingredient, may aid in digestion
Garlic powder in the mix might have heart-health benefits
Using seasoning blends can help reduce sodium intake compared to salt alone
Can make vegetables and lean proteins more appealing, potentially increasing their consumption

Gluten-free, suitable for those with gluten sensitivitiesIt’s important to remember that these potential benefits are minimal given the small quantities typically used in cooking. The primary purpose of taco seasoning is to add flavor to food, not to provide significant health benefits. A balanced diet with whole foods is generally recommended for optimal health.
People with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, as it may contain wheat-derived ingredients
Individuals with allergies to any of the ingredients, such as spices or artificial flavors
Those on a low-sodium diet, as taco seasoning can be high in salt
People with sensitivities to MSG (monosodium glutamate), which may be present in some versions
Individuals following a strict vegan diet, as some varieties may contain milk derivatives
Those avoiding artificial colors or preservatives
People with corn allergies, as corn starch is often used as an anti-caking agent
Individuals following a low FODMAP diet, due to the presence of onion and garlic powders
Those with sensitivities to capsaicin (the compound that makes peppers spicy)
People on restricted diets that limit certain spices or flavoringsAlways check the specific ingredient list on the package, as formulations can change, and consult with a healthcare professional if you have any concerns about consuming this product.

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 ).
