Gluten Intolerant Pill

A tiny pill was developed to help Australians eat out without worry.  It is called GluteGuard, developed by Australian scientists, contains an enzyme found in the papaya fruit that guards against gluten.

Taken before a meal, it works to break down the gluten into tiny molecules so it is no longer toxic to the body.  It will pass the stomach and move to the small intestine where the enzyme is released.
This is important because the small intestine is where gluten causes the damage.

An estimated 1 in 10 Australian adults are gluten intolerant.  It is hoped that GluteGuard will benefit many, however it is not recommended as a substitute for a gluten free diet.
