Pancit, a popular Filipino noodle dish, can be gluten-free depending on the type of noodles used and other ingredients. Traditional pancit bihon, which uses rice noodles, is typically gluten-free, but other variations may contain wheat-based noodles or soy sauce, so it’s important to check the specific ingredients or ask about preparation methods if you have gluten sensitivities.

Good source of carbohydrates: Provides energy for daily activities
Contains vegetables: Offers vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber
Protein from meat or seafood: Supports muscle growth and repair
Low in fat: When prepared with lean meats and minimal oil
Vitamin C: From ingredients like cabbage and carrots, supporting immune function
Iron: Found in some ingredients, important for blood health
B vitamins: Present in noodles and some vegetables, supporting metabolism
Antioxidants: From various vegetables, helping to fight free radicals
Hydration: Due to its broth-based nature in some versions
Customizable: Can be adapted to include healthier ingredients or meet dietary restrictions
Portion control: Can be a balanced meal when served in appropriate amounts
Cultural connection: May provide emotional/mental health benefits through cultural identityIt’s important to note that the exact health benefits can vary based on the specific recipe and preparation method used. Some versions of pancit may be higher in sodium or fat, so moderation is key.
People with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease (if wheat-based noodles are used)
Individuals with soy allergies (as soy sauce is often used in the dish)
Those with shellfish allergies (if shrimp or other seafood is included)
People on low-sodium diets (due to the use of soy sauce and other potentially high-sodium ingredients)
Individuals with certain vegetable allergies (e.g., carrots, cabbage, or other vegetables commonly used in pancit)
Vegans or vegetarians (unless a meat-free version is prepared)
Those with egg allergies (if egg noodles are used)
People on low-carb diets (due to the high carbohydrate content of noodles)
Individuals with specific religious or cultural dietary restrictions (depending on the ingredients used)
Those with MSG sensitivity (if MSG is used as a flavor enhancer)It’s important to note that pancit recipes can vary, so the specific ingredients should always be checked for potential allergens or dietary conflicts.

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 ).
