Yes, pure vegetable oil is naturally gluten-free. However, it’s important to check labels and manufacturing processes, as some flavored or specialty oils may contain gluten-based additives or be processed in facilities that also handle gluten-containing products.
Low in saturated fats: Most vegetable oils are low in saturated fats, which can help reduce bad cholesterol levels.
Rich in unsaturated fats: Many vegetable oils contain healthy unsaturated fats, including monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats.
Source of essential fatty acids: Some vegetable oils provide omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are essential for various bodily functions.
Vitamin E content: Many vegetable oils are good sources of vitamin E, an antioxidant that supports immune function and skin health.
May help reduce inflammation: Some vegetable oils, like olive oil, have anti-inflammatory properties.
Heart health: Replacing saturated fats with vegetable oils may help reduce the risk of heart disease.
Improved insulin sensitivity: Some studies suggest that certain vegetable oils may help improve insulin sensitivity.
Supports nutrient absorption: Vegetable oils can help the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K).
Versatile cooking medium: They can be used for various cooking methods, making it easier to prepare a wide range of healthy dishes.
May support weight management: When used in moderation, vegetable oils can be part of a balanced diet that supports healthy weight.It’s important to note that while vegetable oils can offer health benefits, they should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.

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 ).
