Hormel Foods Corporation — Hormel, Homestyle Mashed Potatoes
by Hormel Foods CorporationMRT 176 Panel Triggers Identified
Clinical Product Assessment
Hormel Foods Corporation 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 3 MRT-tested triggers: Potato, Cow’s Milk, and Corn (via maltodextrin). Because the ingredient list includes ‘spice’ and ‘flavoring’ without further specification, it may contain additional hidden triggers. This combination of multiple identified triggers and unknown ingredients makes it unsuitable for the elimination or reintroduction phases (Phase 1 and 2).
Risk Summary
- Risk Classification: Requires Testing
- MRT Triggers Identified: 3
- Safe Ingredients: 2
- Unknown/Ambiguous: 2 (spice, flavoring)
- LEAP Phase Compatibility: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided
Flagged Ingredient Mapping
The following ingredients were identified as matching substances on the MRT 176 panel:
| Ingredient | Maps To (MRT Panel) | Match Type |
|---|---|---|
| potatoes | Potato | Direct Match |
| milk | Cow’s Milk | Direct Match |
| butter | Cow’s Milk | Direct Match |
| cream | Cow’s Milk | Direct Match |
| nonfat dry milk | Cow’s Milk | Direct Match |
| maltodextrin | Corn | Hidden Source |
Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients
The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel: spice, flavoring. Patients should treat these as potential triggers until MRT testing confirms safety.
LEAP Protocol Guidance
This product contains ingredients that could not be fully mapped to the MRT 176 panel. A Certified LEAP Therapist should review the ingredient list against the patient’s individual MRT results.

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
Potato is an MRT-tested substance that also appears as modified food starch, potato starch, and potato flour. One of the nightshade family foods tested on the panel.
One of the most commonly reactive substances on the MRT panel. Found in dairy products and many processed foods as whey, casein, or milk solids. Cross-reactive with goat and sheep milk in some patients.
Corn derivatives are among the hardest triggers to avoid. Found as corn syrup, cornstarch, modified food starch, dextrose, maltodextrin, and citric acid in thousands of processed products.
What This Means For Your Diet
With 3 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 3 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.
