Is Mochiko Flour Gluten Free?
Mochiko flour, which is made from sweet rice (also known as glutinous rice), is naturally gluten-free. Despite its name containing the word “glutinous,” it does not contain gluten and is safe for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity to consume.

Gluten-free: Suitable for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity
Low in fat: Contains minimal fat content, making it a good option for low-fat diets
Low in sodium: Beneficial for those monitoring their sodium intake
Source of complex carbohydrates: Provides sustained energy release
Contains essential minerals: Includes small amounts of iron, zinc, and magnesium
Low in calories: Can be useful for weight management when used in moderation
Easily digestible: May be gentler on the digestive system compared to some other flours
Resistant starch: Contains resistant starch, which can promote gut health
Versatile ingredient: Can be used in various recipes, potentially increasing dietary variety
May help stabilize blood sugar: Due to its complex carbohydrate content, it may have a lower glycemic impact than some other floursIt’s important to note that while mochiko flour has these potential benefits, it should be consumed as part of a balanced diet, and individual nutritional needs may vary.
People with celiac disease: Although mochiko flour is gluten-free, some celiac patients may react to it due to cross-contamination or individual sensitivities.
Individuals with rice allergies: Mochiko flour is made from rice, so those with rice allergies should avoid it.
People on low-carb diets: Mochiko flour is high in carbohydrates, making it unsuitable for strict low-carb or ketogenic diets.
Diabetics: Due to its high carbohydrate content, diabetics should consume mochiko flour in moderation and monitor their blood sugar levels closely.
Those with grain sensitivities: Some people may have sensitivities to grains, including rice, and should be cautious when consuming mochiko flour.
Individuals with digestive issues: Some people may find that mochiko flour is difficult to digest, potentially causing bloating or discomfort.
Those watching their calorie intake: Mochiko flour is calorie-dense, so individuals on strict calorie-controlled diets should use it sparingly.
People with a history of arsenic sensitivity: Rice products can contain trace amounts of arsenic, so individuals with a history of arsenic sensitivity should consult their doctor before consuming mochiko flour regularly.Remember that while these points highlight potential concerns, most people can safely consume mochiko flour in moderation as part of a balanced diet.

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 ).
