Clinical Product Assessment
MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment
Clinical Narrative
This product analysis identified 5 direct matches to the MRT 176 panel: Grape, Lime, Strawberry, Orange, and Lemon. While the provided ingredient text is focused on the flavor profile, Bite Size Candies from this manufacturer traditionally contain several other MRT-tested substances not explicitly listed here, including Citric Acid, Corn Syrup (Corn), Cane Sugar, and multiple FD&C synthetic dyes (such as Red #40 and Yellow #5). Due to the high count of identified food triggers, this product is categorized as High Risk and is unsuitable for the elimination phases of the LEAP protocol.

This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance. Always consult your Certified LEAP Therapist.
Understanding These Triggers
Grape is an MRT-tested fruit found in wine, juice, jelly, raisins, and grape seed extract. Also a source of tartaric acid used as a food additive.
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.
Orange is an MRT-tested citrus fruit. Found in juice, marmalade, candied peel, and as natural orange flavoring. Cross-reactivity with other citrus fruits is not assumed on the MRT panel.
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 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.
