Ezequiel Peña, General Manager of Glutagen, Discusses The Product 'Gluteguard'

Ezequiel Peña is the general manager of Glutagen who make the product Gluteguard. We’ll talk about his background, studies that have been done around Gluteguard and how it works for those of us who are gluten free who wish to take extra precautions and lessen the effects of accidental gluten ingestion through cross contamination.  

What is GluteGuard?

GluteGuard is an enzyme supplement for those who are on a gluten free diet for medically diagnosed reasons.

How Does It Work?

“When taken before a meal, GluteGuard’s enteric coating ensures quick delivery to the small intestine where its enzymes are released. The enzymes target and break down the gluten peptides into harmless fragments, which then follow through the normal digestive process without causing symptoms or immune activation.” 
~ Gluteguard ~ 

Scientific Studies

“GluteGuard was extensively researched and developed in-vitro, and later studied in randomised placebo controlled clinical trials. These explored GluteGuard’s efficacy in people with gluten related disorders and demonstrated that it was successful at protecting participants against the symptoms and related effects caused by a daily gluten challenge.”
