by GENERAL MILLS SALES INC.MRT 176 Panel Triggers Identified
Clinical Product Assessment
General Mills Sales 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, including several synthetic food dyes (Red #40, Yellow #6, Blue #1), multiple grains (Corn, Rice), and chemical additives (Citric Acid). The ingredient list also contains ‘natural and artificial flavor’ and ‘other color added,’ which are classified as unknown variables that may contain additional reactive substances. Due to the high number of triggers, this product is considered high risk and is not suitable for Phase 1 or Phase 2 of the ImmunoCalm protocol.
Risk Summary
- Risk Classification: High Risk
- MRT Triggers Identified: 8
- Safe Ingredients: 5
- Unknown/Ambiguous: 2 (natural and artificial flavor, other color added)
- 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 |
|---|---|---|
| whole grain corn | Corn | Direct Match |
| sugar | Cane Sugar | Direct Match |
| rice flour | Rice | Direct Match |
| corn syrup | Corn | Direct Match |
| canola oil | Canola/Rapeseed | Direct Match |
| red 40 | FD&C Red #40 | Chemical Match |
| yellow 6 | FD&C Yellow #6 | Chemical Match |
| blue 1 | Blue #1 | Chemical Match |
| citric acid | Citric Acid | Chemical Match |
Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients
The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel: natural and artificial flavor, other color added. Patients should treat these as potential triggers until MRT testing confirms safety.
LEAP Protocol Guidance
With 8 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
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.
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.
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.
Canola oil (derived from rapeseed) is an MRT-tested substance. It is one of the most common cooking oils in processed foods and restaurant cooking. Look for it in fried foods, dressings, and baked goods.
Allura Red AC is the most widely used food dye and one of the most reactive chemical additives on the MRT panel. Found in candy, beverages, cereals, snack foods, and even some medications.
Sunset Yellow FCF is a synthetic azo dye tested on the MRT chemical panel. Found in cereals, snack foods, candy, and some medications. Banned in several countries outside the US.
Brilliant Blue FCF is a synthetic food dye tested on the MRT chemical panel. Found in candy, beverages, ice cream, and some processed foods. Often combined with Yellow #5 to create green coloring.
A chemical additive tested on the MRT panel. Industrially produced from Aspergillus niger mold, not citrus fruit. Found in beverages, canned goods, candy, and as a preservative in thousands of products.
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.
