Clinical Product Assessment

MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment

Clinical Narrative

This product contains three substances explicitly tested on the MRT 176 panel: Cane Sugar, Caffeine, and Citric Acid. The ‘Real Sugar’ designation identifies Cane Sugar as the primary sweetener. Additionally, the inclusion of ‘natural flavor’ constitutes an unknown variable, as it may contain derivatives of tested substances such as Cherry. Due to the presence of three known triggers and additional unknown flavoring agents, this product is categorized as high risk and is not compatible with the elimination or early reintroduction phases of the LEAP protocol.

Understanding These Triggers

🍬
Cane Sugar

Cane sugar sensitivity is specific to sugarcane-derived sweeteners and is distinct from glucose intolerance. Look for it in ingredient lists as sucrose, cane juice, or turbinado sugar.

Caffeine

Caffeine is tested as a chemical substance on the MRT panel. Found in coffee, tea, chocolate, energy drinks, and some medications. Sensitivity is to the compound itself, not the beverage.

⚗️
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 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.
