MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment
Clinical Narrative
This product contains 5 MRT-tested substances, including several primary foods and a chemical additive (MSG). The presence of ‘Flavorings’ introduces unknown variables that may contain additional tested substances. Due to the high trigger count and allergen content, this product is unsuitable for the early stages of the LEAP protocol.

This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance. Always consult your Certified LEAP Therapist.
Understanding These Triggers
Beef protein is a standalone MRT-tested substance. Includes all beef-derived ingredients like gelatin (sometimes), broth, and tallow. Not cross-reactive with dairy by default.
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.
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.
A major grain trigger distinct from celiac disease. MRT measures inflammatory mediator release to wheat protein, not IgE-mediated gluten allergy. Found in bread, pasta, and many processed foods.
Monosodium glutamate is tested on the MRT chemical additives panel. Found in savory snacks, soups, Asian cuisine, and often hidden as "hydrolyzed protein," "autolyzed yeast," or "natural flavors."
What This Means For Your Diet
With 5 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 5 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.
