Clinical Product Assessment
MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment
Clinical Narrative
This product contains 9 MRT-tested substances, representing multiple food groups and chemical additives. Specifically, it includes foundational vegetables (Tomato, Onion, Garlic), spices (Chili Pepper, Coriander/Cilantro), sweeteners (Cane Sugar), and chemical/derived ingredients (Citric Acid and Corn from distilled vinegar). Due to the high number of reactive triggers, this product is unsuitable for the elimination or reintroduction phases of the LEAP protocol.

Understanding These Triggers
Tomato is a nightshade tested on the MRT panel. It appears in ketchup, pasta sauce, pizza, and many prepared foods. Includes all tomato-derived ingredients like tomato paste and powder.
Onion is tested as a standalone substance on the MRT panel. It appears in seasonings, soups, sauces, and most savory processed foods. Often hidden as "dehydrated onion" or "onion powder" in spice blends.
Chili pepper (Capsicum) is tested on the MRT panel. It appears in hot sauces, spice blends, seasoned meats, and many Mexican, Asian, and Indian-cuisine-inspired processed foods.
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.
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.
Garlic is an MRT-tested substance found in seasoning blends, sauces, and many processed foods. Often listed as "garlic powder," "dehydrated garlic," or hidden in "spices" or "natural flavors."
A chemical additive tested on the MRT panel. Industrially produced from Aspergillus niger mold, not citrus fruit. Found in beverages, canned goods, candy, and as a preservative in thousands of products.
What This Means For Your Diet
With 9 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 9 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.
