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 ).

Gluten Free Alternatives
Sorghum Beer:Made from sorghum grain, this beer has a slightly sweet taste and light body. It's a popular option for gluten-free beers and often has a crisp, refreshing flavor profile.
Rice Beer:Brewed using rice as the primary grain, this beer tends to be light, crisp, and clean-tasting. It's often used in Asian-style lagers and can have a subtle, delicate flavor.

Frequently
Asked Questions

How much gluten is in wheat beer?
Wheat beer typically contains a significant amount of gluten. The exact amount can vary depending on the specific brewing process and ingredients used. Generally, wheat beers contain more gluten than standard beers made primarily from barley. For those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease, wheat beer is not considered safe to consume.
Which common beer is gluten-free?
Traditionally, most beers contain gluten from barley or wheat. However, there are now several gluten-free beer options available. One of the most common gluten-free beers is Redbridge, produced by Anheuser-Busch using sorghum instead of barley. Other popular gluten-free beer brands include Omission, Ghostfish, and Green's.
Is beer ok for wheat allergies?
Beer is generally not recommended for those with wheat allergies. Many beers are made with wheat or barley, which can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. However, some gluten-free beers made from alternative grains like sorghum or rice may be safe options. It's best to consult with a doctor or allergist before consuming any beer if you have a wheat allergy.
How can you tell if a beer is gluten-free?
To determine if a beer is gluten-free, first check the label for clear "gluten-free" labeling. Look for beers made from naturally gluten-free grains like sorghum, rice, or millet. Be cautious of beers labeled "gluten-reduced" as they may still contain trace amounts. For certainty, you can use at-home gluten testing kits or contact the brewery directly for detailed information about their brewing process and ingredients.
