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 ).

Frequently
Asked Questions

Does wheatgrass powder contain gluten?
Wheatgrass powder typically does not contain gluten. Gluten is found in the seeds of wheat plants, not in the grass itself. Wheatgrass is harvested before the wheat plant develops seeds, so it should be gluten-free. However, it's always best to check the specific product label or contact the manufacturer to be certain.
Who should avoid wheat grass?
Individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should avoid wheatgrass. People with grass allergies may also experience adverse reactions to wheatgrass. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before consuming wheatgrass. Those taking blood-thinning medications should exercise caution, as wheatgrass may interact with these drugs.
Is wheat grass OK if you have a wheat allergy?
Wheatgrass is generally considered safe for people with wheat allergies. This is because wheatgrass is harvested before the wheat plant develops gluten-containing seeds. However, there is still a small risk of cross-contamination during processing. It's best to consult with your doctor or allergist before consuming wheatgrass if you have a wheat allergy.
Are barley grass and wheatgrass gluten-free?
Barley grass and wheatgrass themselves do not contain gluten when harvested at the young grass stage. However, there is a risk of gluten contamination if seeds or mature plants are included during harvesting or processing. For those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, it's important to choose products that are certified gluten-free. It's always best to consult with a healthcare professional before adding these to your diet if you have gluten-related concerns.
