Clinical Product Assessment

Marsh Supermarkets, Llc 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 7 MRT-tested substances, including food items (Cherry, Corn) and multiple chemical additives (Fructose, Citric Acid, Benzoic Acid, FD&C Red #40, and Sodium Metabisulfite). Additionally, the presence of ‘natural and artificial flavor’ introduces unknown variables. This composition is categorized as high risk and is not compatible with the early phases of the ImmunoCalm® Dietary Protocol.

Risk Summary

  • Risk Classification: High Risk
  • MRT Triggers Identified: 7
  • Safe Ingredients: 2
  • Unknown/Ambiguous: 1 (natural and artificial flavor)
  • LEAP Phase Compatibility: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided

Flagged Ingredient Mapping

The following ingredients were identified as matching substances on the MRT 176 panel:

Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients

The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel: natural and artificial flavor. Patients should treat these as potential triggers until MRT testing confirms safety.

LEAP Protocol Guidance

With 7 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.

Understanding These Triggers

🍒
Cherry

Cherry is an MRT-tested fruit found in juices, preserves, baked goods, and cherry flavoring. Maraschino cherries contain additional chemical additives that may also be reactive.

🍬
Fructose

Fructose is tested independently from cane sugar on the MRT panel. Found as high-fructose corn syrup, agave nectar, and crystalline fructose. MRT tests inflammatory mediator response, not malabsorption.

🌽
Corn

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.

⚗️
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.

⚗️
Benzoic Acid

A preservative tested on the MRT chemical panel. Found as sodium benzoate in soft drinks, pickles, salad dressings, and condiments. Also occurs naturally in cranberries and cinnamon.

🔴
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 7 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 7 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.
