Clinical Product Assessment

MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment

Clinical Narrative

This product is a commercial soda containing ‘TAMARIND SODA’ as a composite ingredient. Clinical analysis of standard soda formulations from Pepsi-Cola North America identifies at least two MRT-tested chemicals: Fructose (typically derived from high fructose corn syrup) and Citric Acid (a ubiquitous acidulant). While Tamarind itself is not on the MRT 176 panel, the product likely contains unlisted ‘natural flavors’ to achieve its taste profile, which are considered unknown triggers and require clinical testing for compatibility. The presence of two known triggers and unknown flavorings makes this product unsuitable for Phase 1.

Understanding These Triggers

🍬
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.

⚗️
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.

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.
