by Unilever Bestfoods North AmericaMRT 176 Panel Triggers Identified
Clinical Product Assessment
Unilever Bestfoods North America manufactures this product, which has been analyzed against the full MRT 176 panel — comprising 149 foods and 27 chemical additives — to identify potential immune-mediated sensitivities.
MRT Safety Assessment
This product contains 5 MRT-tested substances: Soybean (derived from soybean oil), Egg White and Egg Yolk (from whole eggs and yolks), Cane Sugar (identified as sugar), and Lemon (from lemon juice). The presence of ‘natural flavors’ further categorizes this product as requiring testing, as it may contain undisclosed triggers such as mustard or spices. Due to the presence of 5 known triggers, this product is high risk and not suitable for the elimination or early reintroduction phases.
Risk Summary
- Risk Classification: High Risk
- MRT Triggers Identified: 5
- Safe Ingredients: 4
- Unknown/Ambiguous: 1 (natural flavors)
- LEAP Phase Compatibility: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided

Assessment Methodology
This assessment was generated using Wellbloom’s automated clinical analysis pipeline. Each ingredient was cross-referenced against the complete MRT 176 panel — including 149 food antigens and 27 chemical additives.
This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance. Always consult your Certified LEAP Therapist.
Understanding These Triggers
Soy-derived ingredients appear in a wide range of processed foods including soy lecithin, soybean oil, and textured soy protein. One of the most prevalent hidden triggers.
Egg white protein (albumin) is a common MRT trigger. It appears in baked goods, mayonnaise, and many processed foods. Egg yolk is tested separately on the MRT panel.
Egg yolk is tested independently from egg white on the MRT panel. Some patients react to one but not the other. Common in baked goods, sauces, and enriched pastas.
Cane sugar sensitivity is specific to sugarcane-derived sweeteners and is distinct from glucose intolerance. Look for it in ingredient lists as sucrose, cane juice, or turbinado sugar.
Lemon is tested as a standalone citrus substance on the MRT panel. It appears in beverages, dressings, marinades, and as a flavoring agent. Distinct from citric acid sensitivity.
What This Means For Your Diet
With 5 identified triggers, this product has a high concentration of MRT-tested substances. The probability that at least one of these triggers is reactive on your personal panel is statistically significant.
This product is not recommended during Phase 1 (Elimination) or Phase 2 (Reintroduction). It may only be considered during Phase 3 (Maintenance) after your Certified LEAP Therapist has confirmed that all 5 substances scored Green on your individual MRT results.
Products with 3 or more MRT panel triggers require individualized evaluation. Do not attempt to self-assess — your CLT has the clinical training to weigh multiple reactive substances and potential cross-reactivity.
