Who should avoid Potato

People with diabetes or prediabetes: Potatoes have a high glycemic index and can cause rapid spikes in blood sugar levels.

Individuals following a low-carb or ketogenic diet: Potatoes are high in carbohydrates and may not fit within these dietary restrictions.

Those with potato allergies: Although rare, some people may be allergic to potatoes and should avoid them entirely.

People with autoimmune conditions like celiac disease or inflammatory bowel disease: Some may find that nightshade vegetables, including potatoes, exacerbate their symptoms.

Individuals with kidney problems: Potatoes are high in potassium, which can be problematic for those with impaired kidney function.

People prone to oxalate kidney stones: Potatoes contain oxalates, which can contribute to kidney stone formation in susceptible individuals.

Those following a low FODMAP diet: Some people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) may need to limit potato intake due to their fermentable carbohydrate content.

Individuals with a history of solanine sensitivity: Green potatoes or potato sprouts contain higher levels of solanine, which can be toxic in large amounts.

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 ).
