Clinical Product Assessment

Nestle Waters North America Inc. 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 two MRT-tested substances: Citric Acid and Tea (via black tea extract). Additionally, the presence of ‘natural flavors’ introduces unknown variables that may contain other MRT-tested chemicals or foods. Due to these factors, the product is categorized as requiring testing and is generally excluded from Phase 1 of the ImmunoCalm protocol.

Risk Summary

  • Risk Classification: Requires Testing
  • MRT Triggers Identified: 2
  • Safe Ingredients: 7
  • Unknown/Ambiguous: 1 (natural flavors)

Understanding These Triggers

⚗️
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.

🍵
Tea

Tea (Camellia sinensis) is MRT-tested. Covers black, green, white, and oolong teas. Distinct from caffeine sensitivity — you may react to tea proteins but not caffeine, or vice versa.

What This Means For Your Diet

With 2 identified triggers, this product falls into the moderate risk category. It may be suitable for Phase 2 reintroduction under practitioner guidance, depending on your individual MRT results.

If the specific triggers identified in this product scored Green on your personal MRT panel, your CLT may approve it for controlled reintroduction. If they scored Yellow or Red, this product should be avoided until cleared.
