Is Soju Gluten Free?
Soju is typically gluten-free as it is traditionally made from rice, sweet potatoes, or other gluten-free ingredients. However, some modern varieties may contain wheat or other gluten-containing grains, so it’s always best to check the specific brand and label if you have gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.

Low calorie content: Soju typically contains fewer calories compared to other alcoholic beverages like beer or wine.
Lower alcohol content: Traditional soju has a lower alcohol content (about 20-24%) compared to hard liquors, potentially reducing the risk of overconsumption.
Stress relief: Like other alcoholic beverages, moderate consumption may help reduce stress and promote relaxation.
Social bonding: Sharing soju is a cultural tradition in Korea, which can promote social connections and psychological well-being.
Potential cardiovascular benefits: Some studies suggest that moderate alcohol consumption may have mild cardiovascular benefits, though this is not specific to soju.
Appetite stimulation: Soju may act as an aperitif, potentially stimulating appetite before meals.
Antioxidants: Some fruit-flavored soju varieties may contain small amounts of antioxidants from the added fruit extracts.It’s crucial to emphasize that these potential benefits are associated with moderate consumption only. Excessive alcohol intake, including soju, can lead to serious health issues and should be avoided. Always consult with a healthcare professional regarding alcohol consumption and its effects on your health.

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 ).
