Is Sweetened Coconut Gluten Free?
Yes, sweetened coconut is typically gluten-free. Coconut itself does not contain gluten, and the sweetening process generally does not introduce gluten-containing ingredients.

Source of fiber: Coconut contains dietary fiber, which aids digestion and promotes feelings of fullness.
Provides quick energy: The natural sugars and added sweeteners offer a quick energy boost.
Contains some minerals: Coconut provides small amounts of iron, zinc, and manganese.
May support heart health: Some studies suggest coconut may help improve cholesterol ratios, though more research is needed.
Offers medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs): These fats are metabolized differently and may support weight management.
Potential antioxidant properties: Coconut contains compounds that may help fight oxidative stress.
May boost immune function: Some compounds in coconut have antimicrobial properties.
Can be a gluten-free option: Suitable for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.
Provides some vitamins: Contains small amounts of B-vitamins and vitamin C.
It’s important to note that sweetened coconut is high in calories and added sugars, so it should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. The health benefits of unsweetened coconut may be more pronounced.

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 ).
