Clinical Product Assessment

MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment

Clinical Narrative

The provided ingredient list contains 4 MRT-tested substances derived from ‘Xtra Hot Cayenne Pepper’. This ingredient is a botanical variety of Chili Pepper and a concentrated source of the chemical irritant Capsaicin. As a nightshade, it naturally contains Solanine, and like most peppers, it is high in Salicylic Acid. The presence of four distinct triggers makes this product unsuitable for the elimination and early reintroduction phases of the LEAP protocol.

Understanding These Triggers

🌶️
Chili Pepper

Chili pepper (Capsicum) is tested on the MRT panel. It appears in hot sauces, spice blends, seasoned meats, and many Mexican, Asian, and Indian-cuisine-inspired processed foods.

What This Means For Your Diet

With 4 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 4 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.
