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 ).

Asked Questions 1

Why can't celiacs eat corn?
Celiacs can generally eat corn safely. Corn is naturally gluten-free and is not one of the grains that contain gluten (wheat, barley, and rye). However, some celiacs may have a separate corn sensitivity or allergy unrelated to their celiac disease. It's always best for individuals with celiac disease to consult their doctor or dietitian about their specific dietary needs and restrictions.
Do potatoes and corn have gluten?
Potatoes and corn do not naturally contain gluten. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. Both potatoes and corn are naturally gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity to consume. However, it's important to be cautious of added ingredients or cross-contamination in processed potato or corn products.
What 9 foods are gluten-free?
Rice, quinoa, corn, and potatoes are all naturally gluten-free grains and starches. Fruits, vegetables, legumes, and nuts are also gluten-free options. Meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products do not contain gluten. Additionally, many gluten-free flours and alternatives are available, such as almond flour, coconut flour, and buckwheat.
Does popcorn have gluten?
Popcorn itself is naturally gluten-free. It is made from corn kernels, which do not contain gluten. However, some pre-packaged or flavored popcorn products may contain gluten-containing additives. It's important for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity to check labels carefully or opt for plain popcorn kernels to pop at home.
