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 ).

Frequently
Asked Questions 1

Are udon or soba noodles gluten-free?
Neither udon nor soba noodles are inherently gluten-free. Udon noodles are made from wheat flour, which contains gluten. Traditional soba noodles are made from buckwheat flour, which is gluten-free, but most commercial soba noodles also contain wheat flour. However, 100% buckwheat soba noodles do exist and are gluten-free.
Which noodles are gluten-free?
Rice noodles are naturally gluten-free. Soba noodles made from 100% buckwheat flour are also gluten-free. Bean-based noodles, such as those made from mung beans or edamame, are gluten-free options. Kelp noodles and shirataki noodles are additional gluten-free alternatives.
What noodles in Japan are gluten-free?
Some traditional Japanese noodles that are naturally gluten-free include shirataki noodles, made from konjac yam. Rice noodles, such as rice vermicelli, are also gluten-free and commonly used in Japanese cuisine. Kelp noodles, made from seaweed, are another gluten-free option found in Japan. However, it's important to note that many popular Japanese noodles like ramen, udon, and soba typically contain wheat and are not gluten-free unless specifically made with alternative ingredients.
Are Korean buckwheat noodles gluten-free?
Korean buckwheat noodles, also known as naengmyeon or memil guksu, are typically made from a combination of buckwheat flour and wheat flour. While buckwheat itself is naturally gluten-free, the addition of wheat flour means that most traditional Korean buckwheat noodles are not gluten-free. However, some manufacturers now produce gluten-free versions of these noodles using only buckwheat flour or alternative gluten-free ingredients. It's important to carefully check the ingredient list or look for specific gluten-free labeling if you need to avoid gluten.
