Clinical Product Assessment

MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment

Clinical Narrative

This product contains 3 MRT-tested substances: Citric Acid, Aspartame, and FD&C Red #40. Citric acid is present in two forms: citric acid and sodium citrate. Aspartame is used as a sweetener and Red #40 as a colorant. Additionally, artificial flavor is listed as an unknown component. Patients in Phase 1 (Elimination) should avoid this product. Phase 3 patients require practitioner guidance due to the high number of reactive triggers. This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance.

Understanding These Triggers

⚗️
Citric Acid

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.

⚗️
Aspartame

An artificial sweetener tested on the MRT chemical panel. Found in diet sodas, sugar-free gum, and "light" yogurts. Some patients show significant mediator release to aspartame.

🔴
FD&C Red #40

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.

What This Means For Your Diet

With 3 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 3 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.
