Traditional pale ale is not gluten-free as it is typically made with malted barley, which contains gluten. However, some breweries produce gluten-free versions of pale ale using alternative grains like sorghum, rice, or millet, but these are specifically labeled as gluten-free and are not the standard pale ale.
Rich in antioxidants: Pale Ales contain polyphenols, which have antioxidant properties that may help protect cells from damage.
Source of silicon: Beer, including Pale Ale, is a good source of dietary silicon, which may contribute to bone health.
Potential cardiovascular benefits: Moderate beer consumption has been associated with a reduced risk of heart disease in some studies.
May improve cholesterol levels: Some research suggests that moderate beer intake might help increase HDL (good) cholesterol levels.
Potential cognitive benefits: Some studies indicate that light to moderate beer consumption may be associated with a reduced risk of cognitive decline.
Hydration: Despite being alcoholic, beer is mostly water and can contribute to overall hydration when consumed in moderation.
B vitamins: Pale Ales contain small amounts of B vitamins, particularly folate and niacin.
May reduce kidney stone risk: Some studies suggest that moderate beer consumption might lower the risk of developing kidney stones.
Potential stress reduction: When consumed responsibly, the mild sedative effect of alcohol in Pale Ale may help reduce stress levels.It’s important to note that these potential benefits are associated with moderate consumption, and excessive alcohol intake can lead to numerous health problems. Always drink responsibly and consult with a healthcare professional about alcohol consumption in relation to your personal health.

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 ).
