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 1

How can you tell if protein powder is gluten-free?
To determine if protein powder is gluten-free, start by carefully reading the ingredient list on the packaging. Look for explicit "gluten-free" labeling on the product, as many manufacturers will clearly state this if applicable. Be cautious of ingredients like wheat, barley, rye, and oats (unless specified as gluten-free oats), as these commonly contain gluten. If you're still unsure, contact the manufacturer directly to inquire about their gluten-free status and manufacturing processes.
Does whey protein cause bloating?
Whey protein can cause bloating in some people. This is often due to lactose intolerance, as whey contains small amounts of lactose. Bloating may also occur if you consume large quantities of protein powder at once. However, many people can consume whey protein without experiencing bloating or other digestive issues.
Is whey protein made from wheat?
No, whey protein is not made from wheat. Whey protein is derived from milk during the cheese-making process. It is a byproduct of separating the liquid whey from the solid curds in milk. Whey protein is a complete protein containing all nine essential amino acids.
What is the best protein for celiac disease?
For individuals with celiac disease, the best protein sources are those that are naturally gluten-free. This includes lean meats such as chicken, turkey, fish, and beef, as well as eggs and dairy products for those who can tolerate them. Plant-based options like legumes, nuts, and seeds are also excellent choices. It's important to always check labels and ensure that any processed protein sources are certified gluten-free to avoid cross-contamination.
