Clinical Product Assessment

Whole Foods Market, Inc. 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 6 distinct MRT-tested substances, including the primary protein source (Chicken), a sweetener (Honey), and multiple botanical triggers within the spice and extract components (Black Pepper, Chili Pepper, Sage, and Rosemary). It also contains ‘maltodextrin’ and ‘vinegar’, which are potential sources of unknown triggers such as Corn or Apple. Due to the high number of triggers, this product is unsuitable for the early phases of the LEAP protocol.

  • MRT Triggers Identified: 6
  • Safe Ingredients: 2
  • Unknown/Ambiguous: 4 (vinegar, maltodextrin, torula yeast, spices)

Understanding These Triggers

🍗
Chicken

Chicken is tested independently from other poultry on the MRT panel. Cross-reactivity with turkey or eggs is not assumed — each is measured separately.

🍯
Honey

Honey is tested as a distinct substance on the MRT panel. It contains proteins that can trigger mediator release independently of its sugar content. Found in many "natural" sweetened products.

🫑
Black Pepper

Black pepper (Piper nigrum) is tested on the MRT panel. One of the most ubiquitous spices worldwide — found in virtually every seasoned or prepared food. Often hidden under "spices" on labels.

🌶️
Chili Pepper

Chili pepper (Capsicum) is tested on the MRT panel. It appears in hot sauces, spice blends, seasoned meats, and many Mexican, Asian, and Indian-cuisine-inspired processed foods.

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.
