Have you ever tried to do something you knew was good for you, but failed? Maybe it was an exercise plan, spiritual discipline, or goal. After you failed, how did you feel? Did you try and try again? Or did you fall flat on your face defeated? For me recently, it was the MRT LEAP diet. This week marks my third attempt.
The MRT LEAP diet stands for Modified Release Testing & Lifestyle and Eating Performance. It’s a fairly simple blood test that measures the IGG and IGA reactivity of the immune system’s response to over 100 foods. The purpose of the test is to identify food sensitivities (not allergies) that may be causing harm to the body.
Foods are ranked by three colors and levels, green (non-reactive), yellow (moderately reactive), and red (reactive). None of these foods are necessarily “bad” for you and a “reactive” score doesn’t mean you can never eat that food again, it just means that particular food has some type of reaction in your body.
While some people can see improvements in their health by eliminating all the red and yellow foods, this can also be problematic. If we eliminate them simultaneously, we might feel better, but we won’t know which items were actually causing the issues. This is why most nutritionists and dieticians (including mine) recommend a full-elimination diet instead.
