Whole Foods Market, Inc. — Organic Vanilla Ice Cream Bars Dipped in Organic Chocolate, Chocolate Vanilla
by Whole Foods Market, Inc.MRT 176 Panel Triggers Identified
Clinical Product Assessment
Whole Foods Market, Inc. 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 9 unique MRT-tested substances, qualifying it as High Risk. Multiple dairy components (milk, cream, and milk powder) map to Cow’s Milk and Whey. Vanilla is present in both extract and whole forms, mapping to Vanilla and the chemical trigger Coumarin/Vanillin. Chocolate components map to Cocoa. Soy lecithin represents a dual trigger for Lecithin (Soy) and Soybean. Cane sugar and egg yolks are also direct matches. Due to the high volume of reactive substances, this product is excluded from Phase 1 and Phase 2. This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance.
Risk Summary
- Risk Classification: High Risk
- MRT Triggers Identified: 9
- Safe Ingredients: 3

Assessment Methodology
This assessment was generated using Wellbloom’s automated clinical analysis pipeline. Each ingredient in the product was cross-referenced against the complete MRT 176 panel — including 149 food antigens and 27 chemical additives. Ingredient-to-panel mapping uses direct matching, derivative identification (e.g., ‘whey’ maps to Cow’s Milk), and chemical compound recognition. Hidden trigger sources such as ‘natural flavors’ and ‘spices’ are flagged as unknown variables requiring individual verification.
This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance. Always consult your Certified LEAP Therapist.
Understanding These Triggers
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.
Whey is a dairy-derived protein tested separately from whole cow's milk on the MRT panel. Found in protein powders, baked goods, processed cheese, and many sports nutrition products.
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.
Egg yolk is tested independently from egg white on the MRT panel. Some patients react to one but not the other. Common in baked goods, sauces, and enriched pastas.
Vanilla extract and vanillin (synthetic vanilla) are both MRT-tested. Vanilla appears in baked goods, desserts, and flavored beverages. Check for "natural flavors" which may contain vanilla.
A chemical compound found in cinnamon, vanilla, and many artificial flavorings. Tested on the MRT chemical additives panel. Often hidden under "natural flavors" or "artificial flavoring" on labels.
Cocoa (Theobroma cacao) is tested as a standalone substance. Reactivity to cocoa affects all chocolate-containing products. Distinct from dairy or sugar reactions that often co-occur in chocolate.
Soy lecithin is one of the most ubiquitous food additives, used as an emulsifier in chocolate, baked goods, and margarine. Even small amounts can trigger mediator release in sensitive patients.
Soy-derived ingredients appear in a wide range of processed foods including soy lecithin, soybean oil, and textured soy protein. One of the most prevalent hidden triggers.
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.
