Unleavened bread can be gluten-free, but it isn’t automatically gluten-free. The gluten content depends on the type of flour used to make the unleavened bread, with options like rice flour or almond flour being gluten-free, while wheat-based unleavened breads contain gluten.

Lower in calories: Unleavened bread typically contains fewer calories than leavened bread due to the absence of yeast.
Easier to digest: The lack of yeast can make unleavened bread easier on the digestive system for some people.
Lower glycemic index: Unleavened bread may have a lower glycemic index compared to leavened bread, potentially causing less of a spike in blood sugar levels.
Rich in nutrients: Depending on the grains used, unleavened bread can be a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
No added sugar: Traditional unleavened bread recipes don’t include added sugars, which can be beneficial for those watching their sugar intake.
Longer shelf life: Unleavened bread often has a longer shelf life than leavened bread, reducing food waste.
Purer ingredient list: Typically made with fewer ingredients, unleavened bread can be a simpler, more wholesome option.
Suitable for certain diets: It’s appropriate for some religious observances and can be suitable for people with yeast sensitivities.
Potential prebiotic properties: Some types of unleavened bread, like those made with whole grains, may have prebiotic properties that support gut health.
Versatile: Can be used in various ways in cooking and meal preparation, adding nutritional value to different dishes.Remember that the specific health benefits can vary depending on the ingredients used and preparation methods.
People with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity, as most unleavened breads contain gluten
Individuals with wheat allergies, since many unleavened breads are made from wheat flour
Those on a low-carb or ketogenic diet, as unleavened bread is typically high in carbohydrates
People with diabetes who need to carefully monitor their carbohydrate intake
Individuals following a yeast-free diet (although unleavened bread doesn’t contain yeast, it’s best to consult with a healthcare provider)
Those with certain digestive disorders that may be aggravated by dense, hard-to-digest breads
People with dental issues or who have difficulty chewing, as some unleavened breads can be quite hard
Individuals on a low-sodium diet, if the unleavened bread contains added salt
Those with specific religious or cultural dietary restrictions that prohibit certain types of unleavened bread
People with corn allergies, if the unleavened bread is made with corn-based ingredientsIt’s important to note that these are general guidelines, and individual dietary needs may vary. Always consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian for personalized 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 ).
