Generally speaking, pure orange liqueur is gluten-free as it is typically made from oranges, sugar, and alcohol distilled from gluten-free sources. However, it’s always advisable to check the specific brand and product label, as some flavored or lower-quality orange liqueurs might contain additives or be produced in facilities that process gluten-containing ingredients.
Source of antioxidants: The orange-based ingredients contain flavonoids and vitamin C, which are antioxidants that can help protect cells from damage.
Digestive aid: Some believe it can stimulate appetite and aid digestion when consumed in small amounts after meals.
Stress relief: Like other alcoholic beverages, it may help reduce stress and promote relaxation when consumed in moderation.
Potential cardiovascular benefits: Moderate alcohol consumption has been linked to improved heart health in some studies.
Blood sugar regulation: Some research suggests that moderate alcohol consumption may improve insulin sensitivity.
Vitamin C content: Orange liqueurs contain some vitamin C, which supports immune function and skin health.
Flavonoid content: Flavonoids from oranges may have anti-inflammatory properties.
Potential cognitive benefits: Moderate alcohol consumption has been associated with reduced risk of cognitive decline in some studies.Remember that these benefits are associated with moderate consumption only. Excessive alcohol intake can lead to numerous health problems and outweigh any potential benefits. Always drink responsibly and consult with a healthcare professional about alcohol consumption.
Pregnant women: Alcohol consumption during pregnancy can lead to fetal alcohol spectrum disorders.
Breastfeeding mothers: Alcohol can pass through breast milk and affect the baby.
People with alcohol use disorders or those in recovery from alcoholism.
Individuals taking medications that interact negatively with alcohol.

Those who are operating vehicles or machinery.
People with certain mental health conditions that can be exacerbated by alcohol consumption.
Individuals on a calorie-restricted diet, as liqueurs are often high in calories.Remember, it’s always best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice regarding alcohol consumption.

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 ).
