Fage — Lowfat Greek Strained Yogurt
by FAGEMRT 176 Panel Triggers Identified
Clinical Product Assessment
Fage 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: Cow’s Milk, Yogurt, Strawberry, Cane Sugar, Corn, and Lemon. The yogurt base contains skimmed milk and cream (Cow’s Milk) and active cultures (Yogurt). The fruit preparation includes strawberries and strawberry juice concentrate (Strawberry), cane sugar, corn starch (Corn), and lemon juice concentrate (Lemon). Additionally, it contains ‘natural flavors,’ which are of unknown composition and may contain further tested substances. Due to the high trigger count, this product is considered high risk and is unsuitable for the early elimination phases (Phase 1 and Phase 2).
Risk Summary
- Risk Classification: High Risk
- MRT Triggers Identified: 6
- Safe Ingredients: 2
- Unknown/Ambiguous: 1 (natural flavors)
- LEAP Phase Compatibility: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided
Flagged Ingredient Mapping
The following ingredients were identified as matching substances on the MRT 176 panel:

| strawberry juice concentrate | Strawberry | Direct Match |
| lemon juice concentrate | Lemon | Direct Match |
Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients
The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel: natural flavors. Patients should treat these as potential triggers until MRT testing confirms safety.
LEAP Protocol Guidance
With 6 MRT-tested substances identified, this product is not recommended during Phase 1 or Phase 2. Phase 3 (Maintenance) patients should consult their Certified LEAP Therapist.

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
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.
Yogurt is tested independently from whole cow's milk on the MRT panel. The fermentation process alters some milk proteins, meaning you may react differently to yogurt vs. milk.
Strawberry is an MRT-tested fruit found in yogurts, ice cream, jams, and flavored beverages. Also appears as "natural strawberry flavor" in many processed foods.
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.
Lemon is tested as a standalone citrus substance on the MRT panel. It appears in beverages, dressings, marinades, and as a flavoring agent. Distinct from citric acid sensitivity.
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.
