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 is classified as high risk due to the presence of 4 MRT-tested substances. It contains primary food triggers (Tomato and Chili Pepper) along with their naturally occurring chemical constituents (Capsaicin and Solanine), both of which are independently tested on the MRT 176 panel. Furthermore, the product contains organic distilled white vinegar and xanthan gum; these are considered unknown variables because they are frequently derived from corn or wheat, which are also tested substances. Given the multiple triggers and hidden sources, this product requires guidance from a Certified LEAP Therapist.

  • Risk Classification: High Risk
  • MRT Triggers Identified: 4
  • Safe Ingredients: 3
  • Unknown/Ambiguous: 2 (organic distilled white vinegar, xanthan gum)
  • LEAP Phase Compatibility: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided

Understanding These Triggers

🍅
Tomato

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.

🌶️
Chili Pepper

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.

What This Means For Your Diet

With 4 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 4 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.
