Mole, a traditional Mexican sauce, is typically gluten-free as its main ingredients are usually chilies, nuts, seeds, chocolate, and spices. However, some recipes or pre-made versions may contain gluten-containing ingredients like bread or flour as thickeners, so it’s always best to check the specific recipe or label if you have gluten sensitivities.

Heart health: Some ingredients like nuts and seeds can contribute to heart health by providing healthy fats and fiber.
May have anti-inflammatory properties: Spices like cinnamon and cloves used in mole have anti-inflammatory effects.
Digestive health: Fiber from various ingredients can support digestive health and promote regular bowel movements.
Potential cancer-fighting properties: Some studies suggest that compounds in chocolate and certain spices may have cancer-fighting properties.
Blood sugar regulation: Cinnamon, often used in mole, may help regulate blood sugar levels.
Immune system support: The diverse array of plant-based ingredients can provide various phytonutrients that support overall immune function.Remember that the health benefits can vary depending on the specific recipe and ingredients used, and mole should be consumed 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 ).
