The Natural Confectionery Co. Candy Jelly Snakes
MRT 176 Panel Triggers Identified
Clinical Product Assessment
MRT Safety Assessment
This product is highly complex from an immunological standpoint, containing 9 substances tracked on the MRT 176 panel. Triggers include Corn (via glucose syrup and starch), Cane Sugar, Beef (via bovine gelatine), Citric Acid, Coconut, Orange, Lemon, Paprika, and Turmeric (via curcumin). Additionally, multiple ‘natural flavoring’ components are present, which are classified as unknown variables. The high concentration of reactive components makes this product unsuitable for the initial phases of the LEAP protocol.
Risk Summary
- Risk Classification: High Risk
- MRT Triggers Identified: 9
- Safe Ingredients: 4
- Unknown/Ambiguous: 3 (natural orange flavouring, natural lemon flavouring with other natural flavourings, natural flavourings)
- LEAP Phase Compatibility: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided
Flagged Ingredient Mapping
The following ingredients were identified as matching substances on the MRT 176 panel:
| Ingredient | Maps To (MRT Panel) | Match Type |
|---|---|---|
| glucose syrup | Corn | Derived Match |
| sugar | Cane Sugar | Direct Match |
| starch | Corn | Derived Match |
| gelatine (bovine) | Beef | Derived Match |
| citric acid | Citric Acid | Chemical Match |
| vegetable oils (coconut) | Coconut | Direct Match |
| natural orange flavouring | Orange | Direct Match |
| natural lemon flavouring | Lemon | Direct Match |
| paprika extract | Paprika | Direct Match |
| curcumin | Turmeric | Derived Match |
Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients
The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel: natural orange flavouring, natural lemon flavouring with other natural flavourings, natural flavourings. Patients should treat these as potential triggers until MRT testing confirms safety.
LEAP Protocol Guidance
With 9 MRT-tested substances identified, this product is not recommended during Phase 1 or Phase 2. Phase 3 (Maintenance) patients should consult their Certified LEAP Therapist.

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
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 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.
Beef protein is a standalone MRT-tested substance. Includes all beef-derived ingredients like gelatin (sometimes), broth, and tallow. Not cross-reactive with dairy by default.
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.
Coconut is tested as an individual substance on the MRT panel. Found as coconut oil, coconut milk, coconut cream, and coconut flour — all common substitutes in dairy-free and paleo diets.
Orange is an MRT-tested citrus fruit. Found in juice, marmalade, candied peel, and as natural orange flavoring. Cross-reactivity with other citrus fruits is not assumed on the MRT panel.
Lemon is tested as a standalone citrus substance on the MRT panel. It appears in beverages, dressings, marinades, and as a flavoring agent. Distinct from citric acid sensitivity.
Paprika is a dried Capsicum spice tested on the MRT panel. Used heavily in seasoning blends, sausages, cheese coatings, and snack foods. Often listed generically as "spices" on ingredient labels.
Turmeric is an MRT-tested spice increasingly popular in health products. Found in curry blends, mustard, golden milk, and as a natural food coloring. Contains curcumin.
What This Means For Your Diet
With 9 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 9 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.
About This Assessment
This safety assessment was generated by cross-referencing the USDA FoodData Central ingredient record for this product against the 176 substances tested on the Mediator Release Test (MRT) panel. Clinical notes are produced with AI assistance using the matched ingredient data and reviewed by Kerry Watson, NTP, RWP for accuracy against published LEAP ImmunoCalm® protocol guidelines. Risk classifications are based on the number and type of MRT-tested substances identified.
