Clinical Narrative

This product contains 8 MRT-tested substances, including the primary protein (Pork), sweetener (Cane Sugar), and multiple flavor components. The use of soy sauce introduces Soybean, while the marinade utilizes Apple, Ginger, Garlic, Onion, and Sesame. Due to the high density of tested triggers, this product is contraindicated for the elimination and reintroduction phases of the LEAP protocol.

Understanding These Triggers

🥓
Pork

Pork is tested as an individual protein on the MRT panel. Includes all pork-derived products such as bacon, ham, sausage, gelatin (often pork-derived), and lard.

🍬
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.

🫘
Soybean

Soy-derived ingredients appear in a wide range of processed foods including soy lecithin, soybean oil, and textured soy protein. One of the most prevalent hidden triggers.

🍎
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.

🧄
Garlic

Garlic is an MRT-tested substance found in seasoning blends, sauces, and many processed foods. Often listed as "garlic powder," "dehydrated garlic," or hidden in "spices" or "natural flavors."

🧅
Onion

Onion is tested as a standalone substance on the MRT panel. It appears in seasonings, soups, sauces, and most savory processed foods. Often hidden as "dehydrated onion" or "onion powder" in spice blends.

What This Means For Your Diet

With 8 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 8 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.
