Mars, Inc. — WINTERGREEN CURIOUSLY STRONG MINTS, WINTERGREEN
by Mars, Inc.MRT 176 Panel Triggers Identified
Clinical Product Assessment
MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment
Clinical Narrative
The assessment identifies three MRT-tested substances. Sugar is mapped to Cane Sugar, a primary food trigger. The wintergreen flavoring is a direct source of Salicylic Acid (chemical trigger) and Mint/Menthol (food trigger). The presence of ‘natural flavors’ is also flagged as an unknown variable, which may contain additional untested or tested derivatives. Given the concentration of three triggers, this product is unsuitable for Phase 1 or 2 of the LEAP protocol.

This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance. Always consult your Certified LEAP Therapist.
Understanding These Triggers
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.
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.
