MRT 176 Panel Safety Assessment

Clinical Narrative

This product is classified as HIGH_RISK due to the presence of 7 unique MRT-tested substances. It contains primary food triggers including Corn (syrup and starch), Cane Sugar, Apple (juice concentrate), and Mango (puree). Furthermore, it contains three chemical triggers: Citric Acid, FD&C Yellow #5, and FD&C Yellow #6. The inclusion of ‘natural flavor’ adds an additional layer of uncertainty, as it may hide further reactive substances. This product is not suitable for Phase 1 or Phase 2 of the LEAP protocol.

Understanding These Triggers

🌽
Corn

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.

🍬
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.

🍎
Apple

Apple is an MRT-tested fruit that appears in juice blends, baby food, applesauce, pectin-based products, and as a sweetener (apple juice concentrate) in many "natural" foods.

⚗️
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.

🟡
FD&C Yellow #5

Tartrazine (Yellow #5) is an azo dye on the MRT chemical panel. Found in processed foods, beverages, and medications. Cross-reactivity with aspirin sensitivity has been documented in clinical literature.

🟠
FD&C Yellow #6

Sunset Yellow FCF is a synthetic azo dye tested on the MRT chemical panel. Found in cereals, snack foods, candy, and some medications. Banned in several countries outside the US.

What This Means For Your Diet

With 7 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 7 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.
