Clinical Product Assessment

MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment

Clinical Narrative

This product contains 8 MRT-tested substances. It contains Potato as the base and multiple vegetable oils (Corn, Sunflower, Safflower, Canola) which are all individually tested on the MRT 176 panel. Additionally, it contains Maltodextrin (typically corn-derived), Citric Acid, Yeast Extract, and Lactose (a dairy derivative mapping to Cow’s Milk). The density of triggers makes this product unsuitable for the elimination or early reintroduction phases of the LEAP protocol.

Understanding These Triggers

🥔
Potato

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.

🌽
Corn

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.

🌻
Sunflower

Sunflower seed and sunflower oil are MRT-tested. Sunflower lecithin is increasingly used as a soy lecithin alternative. Found in chips, cooking oils, and many "allergen-friendly" products.

🌿
Canola/Rapeseed

Canola oil (derived from rapeseed) is an MRT-tested substance. It is one of the most common cooking oils in processed foods and restaurant cooking. Look for it in fried foods, dressings, and baked goods.

⚗️
Citric Acid

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.

🥛
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.

🍞
Yeast (Baker's)

Baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is MRT-tested. Found in bread, rolls, pizza dough, and fermented foods. Also present as yeast extract, a common flavor enhancer in savory products.

What This Means For Your Diet

With 8 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 8 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.
