A fast acting, acid resistant prolyl endoprotease enzyme with new 
promising implications for a celiac "pill" has been isolated from 
Aspergillus niger fungi.  Future studies as an oral supplement are 
needed.  I already take digestive enzymes with meals derived from 
Aspergillus (Enzymedica Vgest) along with betaine HCl to control food 
allergy and find them quite effective.  If this new enzyme were added to 
the Vgest formula, I'd have the perfect formula.  See:
