LEAP Phase Status: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided

Clinical Product Assessment

The Quaker Oats 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 3 MRT-tested substances: Corn and Fructose (from high fructose corn syrup) and Benzoic Acid (as sodium benzoate). Additionally, the presence of ‘natural and artificial flavor’ and ‘caramel color’ introduces unknown variables that may contain additional hidden triggers like Cane Sugar or Vanillin. Due to the multiple identified triggers and unknown ingredients, this product is classified as High Risk and is unsuitable for the elimination or early reintroduction phases of the LEAP protocol.

Risk Summary

  • Risk Classification: High Risk
  • MRT Triggers Identified: 3
  • Safe Ingredients: 5
  • Unknown/Ambiguous: 2 (natural and artificial flavor, caramel color)
  • 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
high fructose corn syrup Corn Direct Match
high fructose corn syrup Fructose Chemical Match
sodium benzoate Benzoic Acid Chemical Match

Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients

The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel: natural and artificial flavor, caramel color. Patients should treat these as potential triggers until MRT testing confirms safety.

LEAP Protocol Guidance

With 3 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

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.

🍬
Fructose

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.

⚗️
Benzoic Acid

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 3 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 3 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.
