Understanding These Triggers

🥓
Pork

Pork is tested as an individual protein on the MRT panel. Includes all pork-derived products such as bacon, ham, sausage, gelatin (often pork-derived), and lard.

What This Means For Your Diet

With 1 identified trigger, this product falls into the moderate risk category. It may be suitable for Phase 2 reintroduction under practitioner guidance, depending on your individual MRT results.

If the specific triggers identified in this product scored Green on your personal MRT panel, your CLT may approve it for controlled reintroduction. If they scored Yellow or Red, this product should be avoided until cleared.
