by Whole Foods Market, Inc.MRT 176 Panel Triggers Identified
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 9 MRT-tested substances. Soybean is present as soybean oil; Grape is the base for both red wine and balsamic vinegars; Tapioca, Olive, Garlic, Black Pepper, Basil, Oregano, and Rosemary are all direct matches to the MRT 176 panel. The presence of ‘spices’ and marjoram also introduces unknown variables. With 9 identified triggers, this product is contraindicated for Phases 1 and 2 of the LEAP protocol and requires professional guidance for Phase 3. This is procedural data interpretation, not medical guidance.
Risk Summary
- Risk Classification: High Risk
- MRT Triggers Identified: 9
- Safe Ingredients: 3
- Unknown/Ambiguous: 2 (spices, marjoram)
- LEAP Phase Compatibility: Phase 3 — Practitioner Guided
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 |
|---|---|---|
| organic expeller pressed soybean oil | Soybean | Direct Match |
| organic red wine vinegar | Grape | Direct Match |
| organic balsamic vinegar | Grape | Direct Match |
| organic tapioca syrup | Tapioca | Direct Match |

| organic minced garlic | Garlic | Direct Match |
| organic black pepper | Black Pepper | Direct Match |
| organic basil | Basil | Direct Match |
| organic oregano | Oregano | Direct Match |
| organic rosemary extract | Rosemary | Direct Match |
Unknown / Ambiguous Ingredients
The following ingredients could not be definitively mapped to the MRT 176 panel and may contain hidden triggers: spices, marjoram. 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
With 9 MRT-tested substances identified, this product is not recommended during Phase 1 or Phase 2 of the LEAP protocol. Phase 3 (Maintenance) patients should consult their Certified LEAP Therapist for personalized evaluation based on their individual MRT results.

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
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.
Grape is an MRT-tested fruit found in wine, juice, jelly, raisins, and grape seed extract. Also a source of tartaric acid used as a food additive.
Tapioca (cassava-derived starch) is MRT-tested. Increasingly used as a gluten-free thickener, in boba tea, puddings, and as modified food starch. Common in allergen-free baking.
Olive is tested on the MRT panel. Includes olive oil (one of the most common cooking oils), table olives, and olive-derived ingredients. A staple of Mediterranean diets.
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."
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.
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.
