|---|---|---|
| tapioca starch | Tapioca | Direct Match |
| vegetable oil (corn) | Corn | Direct Match |
| vegetable oil (sunflower) | Sunflower | Direct Match |
| corn starch | Corn | Direct Match |
| modified corn starch | Corn | Direct Match |
| yeast extract | Yeast (Baker’s) | Derived Match |
| maltodextrin (corn) | Corn | Direct Match |
| maltodextrin (potato) | Potato | Direct Match |
| maltodextrin (tapioca) | Tapioca | Direct Match |
| fructose | Fructose | Chemical Match |
Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients
The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel: natural flavors. Patients should treat these as potential triggers until MRT testing confirms safety.

Assessment Methodology
This assessment was generated using Wellbloom’s automated clinical analysis pipeline. Each ingredient was cross-referenced against the complete MRT 176 panel — including 149 food antigens and 27 chemical additives.
This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance. Always consult your Certified LEAP Therapist.
Understanding These Triggers
Tapioca (cassava-derived starch) is MRT-tested. Increasingly used as a gluten-free thickener, in boba tea, puddings, and as modified food starch. Common in allergen-free baking.
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.
Sunflower seed and sunflower oil are MRT-tested. Sunflower lecithin is increasingly used as a soy lecithin alternative. Found in chips, cooking oils, and many "allergen-friendly" products.
Baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is MRT-tested. Found in bread, rolls, pizza dough, and fermented foods. Also present as yeast extract, a common flavor enhancer in savory products.
Potato is an MRT-tested substance that also appears as modified food starch, potato starch, and potato flour. One of the nightshade family foods tested on the panel.
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.
What This Means For Your Diet
With 6 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 6 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.
