Is Powdered sugar Gluten Free?
Powdered sugar, also known as confectioner’s sugar, is typically gluten-free as it is made from finely ground granulated sugar mixed with a small amount of cornstarch. However, it’s always important to check the label or contact the manufacturer to ensure there’s no risk of cross-contamination or the use of wheat-based anti-caking agents in specific brands.

Easy to dissolve: Its fine texture allows it to dissolve quickly in liquids and batters.
Smooth texture: Ideal for creating smooth frostings, glazes, and icings.
Decorative purposes: Perfect for dusting over desserts for an attractive finish.
Blends well: Mixes easily with other dry ingredients in recipes.
No grittiness: Unlike granulated sugar, it doesn’t leave a gritty texture in delicate desserts.
Thickening agent: Can be used to thicken certain sauces or fillings.
Extended shelf life: When stored properly, it has a long shelf life.
Versatility: Used in a wide range of recipes from baked goods to candies.
Less measuring errors: Its fine texture makes it easier to measure accurately.
Quick sweetener: Can be quickly added to beverages or foods for instant sweetness.
Anti-caking properties: Often contains a small amount of cornstarch to prevent clumping.
Lighter in recipes: Can make baked goods lighter compared to granulated sugar.Remember that while powdered sugar has these benefits, it’s still a form of sugar and should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
People with diabetes: Powdered sugar is a concentrated form of sugar that can cause rapid spikes in blood glucose levels.
Those on a low-carb or ketogenic diet: Powdered sugar is high in carbohydrates and can interfere with these dietary plans.
Individuals with corn allergies: Some brands of powdered sugar contain cornstarch as an anti-caking agent.
People trying to lose weight: Powdered sugar is calorie-dense and can contribute to weight gain if consumed in excess.
Those with dental issues: The fine texture of powdered sugar can easily stick to teeth, potentially leading to tooth decay.
Individuals with fructose malabsorption: Powdered sugar contains sucrose, which is partly composed of fructose.
People with certain gastrointestinal conditions: Some individuals may experience digestive discomfort from consuming concentrated sugars.
Those following a whole foods diet: Powdered sugar is a highly processed food product.
Individuals with a history of candida overgrowth: Sugar can potentially feed yeast in the body.
People with certain types of cancer: Some studies suggest that high sugar intake may be associated with increased cancer risk or progression.Remember, moderation is key for most people who don’t have specific health concerns or dietary restrictions.

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 ).
