A Gluten Free Podcast
Ezequiel Peña, General Manager of Glutagen, Discusses the Gluten-Protection Supplement ‘GluteGuard’
A Gluten Free Podcast
Episode 17
In this episode of A Gluten Free Podcast, I chat with Ezequiel Peña, General Manager of Glutagen, the company behind GluteGuard — a popular enzyme supplement designed to support people on a gluten free diet who want extra protection against accidental gluten exposure.
We discuss Ezequiel’s background, the scientific studies behind GluteGuard, and how the product works to break down gluten peptides, helping reduce the symptoms and immune reactions caused by cross-contamination.
What is GluteGuard?
GluteGuard is an enzyme supplement aimed at those medically diagnosed with gluten-related disorders such as coeliac disease. It is not a replacement for a strict gluten free diet but can offer extra reassurance when dining out or travelling.
How Does GluteGuard Work?
According to Gluteguard, the product’s enteric coating ensures that the enzymes reach the small intestine, where they break down gluten proteins into harmless fragments. These fragments then pass through the digestive system without triggering symptoms or immune responses.
Scientific Evidence and Clinical Studies
GluteGuard has been extensively researched, starting with in-vitro studies and advancing to randomised placebo-controlled clinical trials. These studies demonstrate that GluteGuard is effective at protecting individuals with gluten-related disorders against symptoms caused by daily gluten challenges.
Coeliac Australia’s Advice on GluteGuard
While GluteGuard shows promise as a protective supplement, Coeliac Australia clearly states that it is not intended to treat or cure coeliac disease or any medical condition and should never replace a strict gluten free diet.
