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
Rice flour:A finely ground powder made from rice grains. It's versatile and can be used in baking, as a thickener, or to make noodles. Rice flour is naturally gluten-free and has a mild flavor that works well in many recipes.
Almond flour:Made from ground blanched almonds, this flour is high in protein and healthy fats. It's popular in gluten-free baking, especially for cakes and cookies. Almond flour adds a slightly nutty flavor and moist texture to baked goods.
Coconut flour:Produced from dried, ground coconut meat, this flour is high in fiber and low in carbohydrates. It's very absorbent, so recipes typically use less coconut flour compared to wheat flour. It imparts a subtle coconut flavor to dishes.
Tapioca flour:Also known as tapioca starch, this flour is extracted from cassava root. It's often used as a thickener in sauces and soups, and can improve the texture of gluten-free baked goods. Tapioca flour adds chewiness and helps bind ingredients together.
Buckwheat flour:Despite its name, buckwheat is not related to wheat and is naturally gluten-free. It has a strong, nutty flavor and is rich in nutrients. Buckwheat flour is commonly used in pancakes, noodles, and traditional dishes like Russian blini or Japanese soba noodles.
