    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
    Here are five gluten-free alternatives to Worcestershire Sauce, along with short descriptions for each:
    Coconut Aminos:A soy-free, gluten-free sauce made from coconut sap. It has a slightly sweet, salty flavor and is lower in sodium than traditional Worcestershire sauce. It's also rich in amino acids and minerals.
    Balsamic Vinegar:A tangy, sweet vinegar made from grape must. While it lacks some of the complexity of Worcestershire sauce, it can provide a similar depth of flavor to dishes. It's naturally gluten-free and aged in wooden barrels.
    Fish Sauce:A staple in Southeast Asian cuisine, fish sauce is made from fermented fish and salt. It has a strong, salty, umami flavor that can mimic some aspects of Worcestershire sauce. It's naturally gluten-free but has a more pungent aroma.
    Tamari:A Japanese soy sauce made without wheat. It has a richer, smoother, and less salty taste than regular soy sauce. Tamari can provide the umami and salty elements found in Worcestershire sauce and is naturally gluten-free.
    Henderson's Relish:A British condiment similar to Worcestershire sauce but without anchovies or gluten. It's made from vinegar, sugar, and spices, providing a tangy, slightly spicy flavor. While less common outside the UK, it's a direct gluten-free substitute for Worcestershire sauce.

    Frequently
    Asked Questions

    What brand of Worcestershire sauce is gluten-free?
    Lea & Perrins Worcestershire sauce is gluten-free. French's Worcestershire sauce is also gluten-free. The Wizard's Organic Gluten-Free Vegan Worcestershire Sauce is another option for those avoiding gluten. It's important to always check labels, as ingredients and manufacturing processes can change over time.
    Why is Worcestershire sauce not gluten-free?
    Worcestershire sauce typically contains malt vinegar, which is derived from barley and therefore contains gluten. Additionally, some brands may use wheat-based soy sauce as an ingredient. These components make traditional Worcestershire sauce unsuitable for those following a gluten-free diet. However, there are gluten-free versions of Worcestershire sauce available that use alternative ingredients to achieve a similar flavor profile.
    What sauces to avoid when gluten-free?
    When following a gluten-free diet, it's important to avoid sauces that contain wheat, barley, or rye. Common sauces to be cautious of include soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, and many gravies or roux-based sauces. Worcestershire sauce often contains gluten, though some brands offer gluten-free versions. Always check labels carefully and opt for sauces specifically labeled as gluten-free when possible.
    Do anchovies have gluten?
    Anchovies do not naturally contain gluten. They are a type of small, saltwater fish that is gluten-free in its natural state. However, some processed or canned anchovies may contain gluten-containing additives or be processed in facilities that also handle gluten products. It's always best to check the label or contact the manufacturer if you have gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.
