Whole grain oats are naturally gluten-free. However, due to potential cross-contamination during processing, not all oat products are guaranteed to be gluten-free unless specifically labeled as such.

People with celiac disease: Although oats are naturally gluten-free, they can be contaminated with gluten during processing. Only certified gluten-free oats are safe for those with celiac disease.
Individuals with non-celiac gluten sensitivity: Some people may experience adverse reactions to oats even without celiac disease.
Those with oat allergies: A small percentage of people may be allergic to oats and should avoid them entirely.
People following a low FODMAP diet: Oats contain FODMAPs, which can trigger digestive issues in some individuals with IBS or other gut sensitivities.
Individuals on a very low-carb or ketogenic diet: Oats are relatively high in carbohydrates and may not fit into these dietary plans.
Those with avenin sensitivity: Some people may react to avenin, a protein found in oats, similar to how people with celiac disease react to gluten.
People with digestive disorders: Some individuals with conditions like Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis may need to limit or avoid oats, especially during flare-ups.
Those on certain medications: In some cases, oats may interfere with the absorption of certain medications, so it’s best to consult with a healthcare provider.
Individuals with swallowing difficulties: Whole oats may pose a choking hazard for people with dysphagia or other swallowing issues.Remember, it’s always best to consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian before making significant changes to your diet, especially if you have underlying health conditions.

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 ).
