On your initial 60 minute appointment, your results will be reviewed with you. All subsequent appointments must be completed within 12 weeks from the initial appointment.

90% of patients see a 50% symptom reduction in 10 to 14 days. While success is high, there are rare occasions a patient will continue to continues to have some symptoms despite following the program (although they are often reduced in severity or frequency). This does not indicate not that the program did not work. It’s getting closer to the culprit, to what else is contributing to the problem. The next step would be to dig deeper where we may need to refer out to other specialists to help treat the underlying issue.

MRT Food Sensitivity Testing

The MRT (Mediator Release Test) is a specialized blood test that aims to help people understand how their immune system reacts to certain foods, additives, and chemicals. This reaction might cause inflammation, pain, chronic fatigue, and more.

Results take approximately one week and are presented with the indicators red, yellow, and green. Red denotes the foods that are highly reactive in your body, ones we recommend you avoid for 6 months. Yellow are foods that are moderately reactive, that we recommend you eliminate from your diet for 3 months. And green are your least reactive foods and will make up the bulk of your diet during the first month.

 Our team has four Certified LEAP Therapists (CLT) providing multi-lingual nutrition counseling (English, Hindi, Spanish) working with patients who suffer from diet-induced inflammation. We will go over the MRT test results with you, and schedule follow-up appointments where we will develop a personalized elimination diet. This will give your body the chance to heal and give you the tools you need to choose the best foods for your health.

Identify the foods, additives, and chemicals that are triggering your condition: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), fibromyalgia, migraines, PCOS, inflammation, chronic fatigue, and more.

Oftentimes our patients are surprised how much food sensitivities play a role in general health and well-being. Skin conditions like psoriasis, chronic disease like Lupus and Chrohn’s, and hitting those weight plateaus and being unable to lose weight can all be exacerbated by food sensitivities.

 

By identifying trigger foods and chemicals, you’re taking the first step toward wellness. We look forward to working with you!

The foods, additives, and chemicals tested are as follows:

What will your food sensitivity test results look like?

The food sensitivity test (MRT) will identify which foods and chemicals your body is reactive, moderately reactive, or non-reactive to. By working with one of our Registered Dietitians and Certified Leap Therapists (CLT), together, we will develop a diet that will suit your unique and individual needs, following Leap protocol. Through guided nutrition therapy, you can feel empowered about your food choices again, eating your way to a healthier you, one bite at a time.
