Is Tempura Crunch Gluten Free?
Tempura crunch is typically not gluten-free, as it is usually made with wheat flour as the primary ingredient. However, gluten-free versions of tempura crunch can be made using alternative flours like rice flour or cornstarch, but these are not common in most restaurants unless specifically advertised as gluten-free.

Source of protein: If made with seafood or vegetables, it can provide some protein.
Vegetable intake: When vegetables are used, it can increase vegetable consumption.
Lower oil absorption: Properly made tempura batter can absorb less oil than other frying methods.
Potential for healthier oils: If prepared with healthier cooking oils like canola or rice bran oil, it may provide some beneficial fatty acids.
Mineral content: Depending on the ingredients, it may provide some minerals like iron or calcium.
Gluten-free option: If made with rice flour or other gluten-free flours, it can be suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.It’s important to note that these benefits are limited, and tempura crunch should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet due to its typically high calorie and fat content.
People with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity (if the batter contains wheat flour)

People managing their calorie intake for weight loss or maintenance
Individuals with gallbladder issues or those prone to gallstones
People with pancreatitis or at risk for pancreatitis
Those with a seafood allergy (if the tempura includes seafood)
Individuals with diabetes or those monitoring their blood sugar levels
People with certain digestive disorders that are aggravated by fried foods
Those following a vegan or vegetarian diet (if the tempura includes animal products)
Individuals with a known allergy to any of the ingredients used in the tempura batter or filling
People on a low-sodium diet (as tempura can be high in salt)
Those with acid reflux or GERD, as fried foods can exacerbate symptomsRemember that moderation is key, and occasional consumption may be fine for many people. Always consult with a healthcare professional for personalized dietary advice.

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 ).
