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

What rice is not gluten-free?
Most rice is naturally gluten-free. However, some flavored or seasoned rice mixes may contain gluten ingredients. Cross-contamination during processing can also be a concern for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. It's important to check labels and choose certified gluten-free rice products if you need to avoid gluten.
Which whole grain is not gluten-free?
Wheat is not a gluten-free whole grain. It contains gluten, a protein that can cause issues for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Barley and rye are two other common whole grains that contain gluten. Oats are naturally gluten-free but are often contaminated with wheat during processing, so certified gluten-free oats should be chosen by those avoiding gluten.
Is Uncle Ben's wholegrain rice gluten-free?
Uncle Ben's wholegrain rice is generally considered gluten-free. Rice is naturally gluten-free, and whole grain rice should not contain any added gluten ingredients. However, it's always best to check the specific product packaging for the most up-to-date information. For those with severe gluten sensitivities or celiac disease, it's also important to consider potential cross-contamination risks during processing.
Is whole grain still gluten?
Yes, whole grain still contains gluten. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, which are all types of grains. Whole grain simply means that all parts of the grain kernel are used, including the bran, germ, and endosperm. For those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, whole grain products made from wheat, barley, or rye are not suitable alternatives to gluten-free options.
