Clinical Product Assessment

Amy’s Kitchen 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 8 MRT-tested substances. It contains a high concentration of nightshades, including tomato puree, green chiles, and bell peppers, all of which map to the chemical trigger Solanine. Direct food matches include onion, garlic, cilantro, and both safflower and sunflower oils. Furthermore, ‘organic spices’ are listed, which are of unknown composition and may contain additional triggers like cumin or mustard. Due to the high trigger count and unknowns, this product is excluded from Phase 1 and 2 and requires practitioner guidance for Phase 3. This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance.

Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients

The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel and may contain hidden triggers: organic spices. 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 8 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

🧅
Onion

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.

🍅
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.

🌻
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.

🧄
Garlic

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."

🌶️
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 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.
