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 ).

What rice is not gluten-free?
Most rice is naturally gluten-free. However, some flavored or seasoned rice mixes may contain gluten ingredients. Additionally, cross-contamination can occur during processing if rice is handled in facilities that also process wheat products. It's important for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity to check labels carefully and choose certified gluten-free rice products when necessary.
What are the disadvantages of parboiled rice?
Parboiled rice can have a slightly different taste and texture compared to regular white rice, which some people may not prefer. It typically takes longer to cook than regular rice, requiring more time and energy. Parboiled rice is often more expensive than regular white rice due to the additional processing involved. Some nutrients may be lost during the parboiling process, although it generally retains more nutrients than regular white rice.
What's the difference between parboiled rice and regular rice?
Parboiled rice is partially boiled in its husk before milling, while regular rice is simply milled without pre-treatment. This parboiling process changes the structure of the rice, making it firmer and less sticky when cooked. It also increases the rice's nutritional value by driving nutrients from the bran into the grain. Parboiled rice takes slightly longer to cook than regular rice but is less prone to overcooking.
