Clinical Product Assessment
MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment
Clinical Narrative
This product contains 3 MRT-tested substances: Corn, Lime, and Benzoic Acid. Corn is the primary ingredient, and Benzoic Acid is a tested chemical preservative. Although ‘lime’ in the context of nixtamalized corn tortillas refers to calcium hydroxide (a mineral) rather than the citrus fruit on the MRT panel, it is flagged here as a literal match for clinical safety. Because the trigger count reaches three, this product is categorized as high risk for the initial phases of the LEAP protocol.

Understanding These Triggers
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.
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.
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.
