    Is Pad Kee Mao Gluten Free?

    Pad Kee Mao, also known as Drunken Noodles, is not typically gluten-free in its traditional form due to the use of wheat-based soy sauce and often wheat noodles. However, it can be made gluten-free by using rice noodles and gluten-free soy sauce or tamari, but you should always check with the restaurant or cook to confirm ingredients if you have gluten sensitivities.

    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 ).

    Gluten Free Alternatives
    Here are five gluten-free alternatives to Pad Kee Mao, along with short descriptions for each:
    Zucchini Noodle Pad Kee Mao:Also known as "zoodles," zucchini noodles offer a low-carb, gluten-free alternative. This version replaces traditional noodles with spiralized zucchini, creating a lighter, vegetable-based dish that still captures the essence of Pad Kee Mao's spicy, savory flavors.
    Glass Noodle Pad Kee Mao:Glass noodles, made from mung bean or sweet potato starch, provide a gluten-free option with a unique, translucent appearance. These noodles absorb flavors well and offer a slightly chewy texture, making them an excellent substitute in Pad Kee Mao.
    Shirataki Noodle Pad Kee Mao:Shirataki noodles, made from konjac yam, are virtually calorie-free and gluten-free. They have a slightly rubbery texture but work well in absorbing the bold flavors of Pad Kee Mao. This option is ideal for those looking for a low-calorie, gluten-free alternative.
    Spaghetti Squash Pad Kee Mao:This vegetable-based alternative uses roasted spaghetti squash "noodles" instead of traditional noodles. The squash provides a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a texture that mimics thin noodles, creating a unique, gluten-free twist on the classic Thai dish.

    Frequently
    Asked Questions

    Do drunken noodles contain gluten?
    Drunken noodles, also known as pad kee mao, typically contain rice noodles which are naturally gluten-free. However, some restaurants may use wheat-based noodles instead, which do contain gluten. Additionally, soy sauce, which is commonly used in the dish, often contains wheat and therefore gluten. To be certain, it's best to ask about specific ingredients when ordering drunken noodles if you have gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.
    What are Pad Kee Mao noodles made of?
    Pad Kee Mao, also known as Drunken Noodles, is a popular Thai stir-fry dish. It typically uses wide rice noodles as its base ingredient. The noodles are stir-fried with protein (often chicken, beef, or tofu), vegetables like bell peppers and Thai basil, and a savory sauce. The sauce usually contains ingredients such as soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce, and chili for a spicy kick.
    Is pad thai usually gluten-free?
    Pad Thai is often gluten-free, but not always. The rice noodles used in traditional Pad Thai are naturally gluten-free. However, some restaurants may use soy sauce or other ingredients containing gluten in their Pad Thai sauce. It's important to check with the specific restaurant or recipe to ensure the dish is truly gluten-free.
    Do Thai rice noodles have gluten?
    Thai rice noodles are typically gluten-free. They are made primarily from rice flour and water. However, it's important to check the packaging or ask the manufacturer to be certain, as some products may contain additional ingredients or be processed in facilities that also handle gluten-containing foods. For those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, it's always best to exercise caution and verify the gluten-free status of any food product.
