Is Single Malt Scotch Gluten Free?
Single malt Scotch whisky is generally considered gluten-free, as the distillation process removes gluten proteins from the final product. However, some extremely gluten-sensitive individuals may still react to trace amounts that could potentially remain, so it’s always best to consult with a doctor if you have severe gluten intolerance or celiac disease.
Antioxidant properties: Single Malt Scotch contains ellagic acid, a powerful antioxidant that may help fight free radicals in the body.
Potential cardiovascular benefits: Moderate consumption may increase HDL (good) cholesterol and reduce the risk of blood clots.
Possible reduced risk of diabetes: Some studies suggest moderate alcohol consumption may lower the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
Cognitive function: Moderate intake has been linked to a potential reduced risk of dementia and improved cognitive function in older adults.
Stress relief: When consumed in moderation, it may help reduce stress and promote relaxation.
Digestive aid: Traditionally used as a digestif, it may help stimulate digestion after a meal.
Lower calorie content: Compared to many other alcoholic beverages, Single Malt Scotch is relatively low in calories.

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 ).
