Bob’s Red Mill Natural Foods, Inc. — Gluten Free Muffin Mix
by Bob's Red Mill Natural Foods, Inc.MRT 176 Panel Triggers Identified
Clinical Product Assessment
Bob’s Red Mill Natural Foods, 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 7 MRT-tested substances, including multiple gluten-free grains (Rice, Sorghum, Tapioca), Potato, Corn, Cane Sugar, and Vanilla. The high trigger count indicates a significant potential for inflammatory reaction in sensitive patients, making it unsuitable for the initial elimination or reintroduction phases. Additionally, the inclusion of ‘natural vanilla flavor’ is flagged for containing potential unknowns, although its specific components are listed and accounted for.
Risk Summary
- Risk Classification: High Risk
- MRT Triggers Identified: 7
- Safe Ingredients: 5
- Unknown/Ambiguous: 1 (natural vanilla flavor)
- LEAP Phase Compatibility: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided
Flagged Ingredient Mapping
The following ingredients were identified as matching substances on the MRT 176 panel:
| Ingredient | Maps To (MRT Panel) | Match Type |
|---|---|---|
| sweet white rice flour | Rice | Direct Match |
| whole grain brown rice flour | Rice | Direct Match |
| potato starch | Potato | Direct Match |
| whole grain sorghum flour | Sorghum | Direct Match |
| tapioca flour | Tapioca | Direct Match |
| sugar | Cane Sugar | Direct Match |
| cornstarch | Corn | Direct Match |
| vanilla oleoresin | Vanilla | Direct Match |
Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients
The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel: natural vanilla flavor. Patients should treat these as potential triggers until MRT testing confirms safety.
LEAP Protocol Guidance

Assessment Methodology
This assessment was generated using Wellbloom’s automated clinical analysis pipeline. Each ingredient was cross-referenced against the complete MRT 176 panel — including 149 food antigens and 27 chemical additives.
This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance. Always consult your Certified LEAP Therapist.
Understanding These Triggers
Rice is often used as a "safe" base in elimination diets, but some patients do react to it. Verify with your MRT results before assuming rice is safe for your Phase 1 rotation.
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.
Tapioca (cassava-derived starch) is MRT-tested. Increasingly used as a gluten-free thickener, in boba tea, puddings, and as modified food starch. Common in allergen-free baking.
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.
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.
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.
What This Means For Your Diet
With 7 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 7 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.
