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

Is Metamucil safe for celiacs?
Metamucil is generally considered safe for people with celiac disease. The main ingredient in Metamucil is psyllium husk, which is naturally gluten-free. However, it's always important for celiacs to check product labels carefully, as some flavored varieties may contain gluten-containing additives. If you have concerns, consult with your doctor or choose a product specifically labeled as gluten-free.
Who should not drink Metamucil?
Metamucil should not be consumed by individuals with difficulty swallowing. People with known allergies to psyllium or other ingredients in Metamucil should avoid it. Those with intestinal blockages or other severe gastrointestinal conditions should consult a doctor before use. Children under 6 years old should not take Metamucil unless directed by a healthcare professional.
Can celiacs eat psyllium?
Psyllium is generally considered safe for people with celiac disease. It is naturally gluten-free and derived from the seeds of the Plantago ovata plant. However, as with any food product, there is a small risk of cross-contamination during processing or packaging. To be absolutely certain, celiacs should choose psyllium products that are specifically labeled as gluten-free.
Can celiacs take benefiber?
Benefiber's main ingredient is wheat dextrin, which is derived from wheat starch. However, the processing of wheat dextrin removes the gluten protein, making it generally considered safe for people with celiac disease. Nevertheless, individuals with celiac disease should always consult their doctor before adding any new supplement to their diet. It's also advisable to choose Benefiber products specifically labeled as gluten-free for added assurance.
