Oats themselves are naturally gluten-free. However, due to potential cross-contamination during growing or processing, not all oat products are guaranteed to be gluten-free unless specifically labeled as such.

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 1

Are all oats gluten-free?
Not all oats are gluten-free. While oats themselves don't contain gluten, they are often processed in facilities that also handle wheat, barley, or rye, which can lead to cross-contamination. For those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, it's important to look for oats specifically labeled as gluten-free. These certified gluten-free oats are grown, harvested, and processed in dedicated gluten-free facilities to avoid any potential cross-contamination.
Can you eat oats if gluten intolerant?
Pure oats are naturally gluten-free and can typically be consumed by those with gluten intolerance. However, oats are often cross-contaminated with wheat, barley, or rye during growing or processing. For this reason, people with celiac disease or severe gluten sensitivity should look for certified gluten-free oats. It's also worth noting that a small percentage of people with celiac disease may react to avenin, a protein in oats, so individual tolerance can vary.
Are Quaker oats gluten-free?
Quaker oats themselves are naturally gluten-free. However, there is a risk of cross-contamination during processing, as oats are often grown and processed near wheat and other gluten-containing grains. For this reason, Quaker does not label their regular oats as gluten-free. They do offer specially labeled gluten-free oats that are grown and processed to avoid cross-contamination.
What grains are gluten-free?
Several grains are naturally gluten-free. These include rice, corn, quinoa, millet, and sorghum. Oats are also inherently gluten-free, but may be contaminated during processing. Other gluten-free options include buckwheat, amaranth, and teff.
