Clinical Product Assessment

MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment

Clinical Narrative

This product contains 3 MRT-tested substances. The primary ingredients (Parmesan, Romano, and Asiago) are aged cheeses, which are direct sources of Cow’s Milk and the biogenic amine Tyramine, a tested chemical trigger. Furthermore, shredded cheese products of this type utilize Potato Starch (White Potato) as an anti-caking agent. The presence of three distinct triggers renders this product unsuitable for the early stages of the LEAP protocol.

Understanding These Triggers

🥛
Cow's Milk

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.

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.
