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

Does naan bread contain gluten?
Yes, traditional naan bread typically contains gluten. Naan is made with wheat flour, which is a primary source of gluten. People with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should avoid regular naan bread. However, there are gluten-free versions of naan available made with alternative flours.
Is any Indian bread gluten-free?
Some traditional Indian breads are naturally gluten-free. For example, dosa and uttapam, made from fermented rice and lentil batter, do not contain gluten. Roti and naan, however, are typically made with wheat flour and are not gluten-free. There are also gluten-free versions of some Indian breads available, made with alternative flours like chickpea or rice flour.
What bread is naturally gluten-free?
Rice bread is naturally gluten-free. Corn bread made with 100% cornmeal is also gluten-free. Breads made from alternative flours like almond, coconut, or quinoa are gluten-free options. Sorghum bread is another naturally gluten-free choice.
Is naan healthier than bread?
Naan and bread can both be part of a balanced diet, but their nutritional profiles differ. Generally, naan tends to be higher in calories and fat compared to most types of bread due to added ingredients like yogurt or ghee. Bread, especially whole grain varieties, often contains more fiber and nutrients. However, the healthiness of either option depends on factors like serving size, ingredients, and overall diet.
