LEAP Phase Status: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided

Clinical Product Assessment

Mondelez International, 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 6 MRT-tested substances, including chemical sweeteners, food dyes, and soy derivatives. Aspartame, Blue #1, and Yellow #5 are direct chemical matches. Glycerin and Soy Lecithin are also flagged; the latter necessitates flagging for both Lecithin (Soy) and Soybean. The presence of ‘natural flavoring’ and ‘botanical extracts’ introduces unknown variables. With 6 identified triggers, this product is classified as high risk and is not compatible with Phase 1 or Phase 2 of the LEAP protocol. This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance.

Risk Summary

  • Risk Classification: High Risk
  • MRT Triggers Identified: 6
  • Safe Ingredients: 10
  • Unknown/Ambiguous: 2 (natural and artificial flavoring, natural botanical extracts)
  • LEAP Phase Compatibility: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided

Flagged Ingredient Mapping

The following ingredients were identified as matching substances on the MRT 176 panel. Each ingredient is mapped to its corresponding panel analyte:

Ingredient Maps To (MRT Panel) Match Type
aspartame Aspartame Direct Match
blue 1 Blue #1 Chemical Match
glycerin Glycerin/Glycerol Chemical Match
soy lecithin Lecithin (Soy) Direct Match
soy lecithin Soybean Direct Match
yellow 5 FD&C Yellow #5 Chemical Match

Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients

The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel and may contain hidden triggers: natural and artificial flavoring, natural botanical extracts. Patients should treat these as potential triggers until MRT testing confirms safety. Common examples include ‘natural flavors’ (which can contain any of the 176 tested substances) and ‘spices’ (which may include tested spices like cinnamon, cumin, or black pepper).

LEAP Protocol Guidance

With 6 MRT-tested substances identified, this product is not recommended during Phase 1 or Phase 2 of the LEAP protocol. Phase 3 (Maintenance) patients should consult their Certified LEAP Therapist for personalized evaluation based on their individual MRT results.

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

⚗️
Aspartame

An artificial sweetener tested on the MRT chemical panel. Found in diet sodas, sugar-free gum, and "light" yogurts. Some patients show significant mediator release to aspartame.

🔵
Blue #1

Brilliant Blue FCF is a synthetic food dye tested on the MRT chemical panel. Found in candy, beverages, ice cream, and some processed foods. Often combined with Yellow #5 to create green coloring.

⚗️
Glycerin/Glycerol

Glycerin is a chemical additive tested on the MRT panel. Used as a humectant and sweetener in protein bars, toothpaste, medications, and processed foods. Can be derived from plant or animal fats.

🧪
Lecithin (Soy)

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.

🫘
Soybean

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.

🟡
FD&C Yellow #5

Tartrazine (Yellow #5) is an azo dye on the MRT chemical panel. Found in processed foods, beverages, and medications. Cross-reactivity with aspirin sensitivity has been documented in clinical literature.

What This Means For Your Diet

With 6 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 6 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.
