Starbucks Coffee Company — Sugar-free Flavored Syrup
by Starbucks Coffee CompanyMRT 176 Panel Triggers Identified
Clinical Product Assessment
Starbucks Coffee Company 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 2 MRT-tested chemical substances: Citric Acid and Benzoic Acid (present as sodium benzoate). Additionally, the ingredient list contains several items classified as unknowns: natural and artificial flavors, maltodextrin, and caramel color. These ingredients are often derived from tested substances such as Corn, Wheat, or Cane Sugar. Because of these unknown variables, the product is contraindicated for Phase 1 (Elimination). Patients in Phase 2 should test Citric Acid and Benzoic Acid individually and verify the source of the maltodextrin and flavors before consumption. This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance.
Risk Summary
- Risk Classification: Requires Testing
- MRT Triggers Identified: 2
- Safe Ingredients: 3
- Unknown/Ambiguous: 3 (natural and artificial flavors, maltodextrin, caramel color)
- LEAP Phase Compatibility: Phase 2 — Reintroduction
Flagged Ingredient Mapping
The following ingredients were identified as matching substances on the MRT 176 panel. Each ingredient is mapped to its corresponding panel analyte:
| Ingredient | Maps To (MRT Panel) | Match Type |
|---|---|---|
| citric acid | Citric Acid | Chemical Match |
| sodium benzoate | Benzoic Acid | Chemical Match |
Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients
The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel and may contain hidden triggers: natural and artificial flavors, maltodextrin, caramel color. Patients should treat these as potential triggers until MRT testing confirms safety. Common examples include ‘natural flavors’ (which can contain any of the 176 tested substances) and ‘spices’ (which may include tested spices like cinnamon, cumin, or black pepper).
LEAP Protocol Guidance
This product contains ingredients that could not be fully mapped to the MRT 176 panel. A Certified LEAP Therapist should review the ingredient list against the patient’s individual MRT results before this product is introduced.

Assessment Methodology
This assessment was generated using Wellbloom’s automated clinical analysis pipeline. Each ingredient in the product was cross-referenced against the complete MRT 176 panel — including 149 food antigens and 27 chemical additives. Ingredient-to-panel mapping uses direct matching, derivative identification (e.g., ‘whey’ maps to Cow’s Milk), and chemical compound recognition. Hidden trigger sources such as ‘natural flavors’ and ‘spices’ are flagged as unknown variables requiring individual verification.
This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance. Always consult your Certified LEAP Therapist.
Understanding These Triggers
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.
A preservative tested on the MRT chemical panel. Found as sodium benzoate in soft drinks, pickles, salad dressings, and condiments. Also occurs naturally in cranberries and cinnamon.
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.
