Welcome to LabCoach!

I'm here to help you understand the biomarkers in your Skin & Hair Wellness Panel panel.

Try asking:

  • "What does creatinine measure?"
  • "Why is vitamin D important?"
  • "What influences glucose levels?"
This provides educational information about biomarkers—not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult your healthcare provider for medical concerns.

Skin & Hair Wellness Panel

Vitamins & Antioxidants

Vitamin A (Retinol)

general wellness biomarker
What Is It

This marker is measured in your blood and provides educational insight into a specific body system or wellness domain.

What It Measures

A laboratory biomarker measured from your sample.

Why It Matters

This marker can provide educational insight into general wellness domains such as metabolism, nutrient status, organ function, inflammation, or hormonal signaling. Interpretation depends on context, symptoms, medications, and timing.

Common Influences
  • Recent illness or inflammation
  • Medications and supplements
  • Hydration status
  • Fasting status and time of day
  • Recent exercise and stress

Vitamin D, 25-Hydroxy (Total)

bone metabolism immune support calcium regulation
What Is It

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin important for bone and immune function. 25‑hydroxy vitamin D is the standard blood marker used to estimate vitamin D status.

What It Measures

25-hydroxy vitamin D, the standard marker of vitamin D status.

Why It Matters

Supports education around bone, immune, and overall wellness. Seasonal changes and supplementation can affect levels.

Common Influences
  • Sun exposure
  • Supplement use
  • Body fat levels
  • Season/geography
  • Certain medications

Vitamin E (Alpha-Tocopherol)

general wellness biomarker
What Is It

This marker is measured in your blood and provides educational insight into a specific body system or wellness domain.

What It Measures

A laboratory biomarker measured from your sample.

Why It Matters

This marker can provide educational insight into general wellness domains such as metabolism, nutrient status, organ function, inflammation, or hormonal signaling. Interpretation depends on context, symptoms, medications, and timing.

Common Influences
  • Recent illness or inflammation
  • Medications and supplements
  • Hydration status
  • Fasting status and time of day
  • Recent exercise and stress

  • Fasting status and time of day
  • Recent exercise and stress
Hormonal Factors

DHEA-Sulfate (DHEA-S)

adrenal signaling hormone precursor stress physiology
What Is It

DHEA‑S (Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate) is an adrenal-derived hormone that serves as a precursor for other hormones (androgens and estrogens) and is often discussed in the context of stress physiology and healthy aging.

What It Measures

DHEA-S, an adrenal-derived hormone precursor.

Why It Matters

Used in wellness education related to stress physiology, aging, and hormone precursor availability.

Common Influences
  • Age
  • Chronic stress
  • Body composition
  • Supplement use
  • Medications

TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone)

metabolic regulation energy balance temperature regulation
What Is It

TSH is a hormone made by the pituitary gland that signals the thyroid to produce thyroid hormones. It is part of the feedback system that helps regulate metabolism and energy.

What It Measures

Pituitary signal that helps regulate thyroid hormone production.

Why It Matters

Supports thyroid wellness education when interpreted alongside Free T4, Free T3, and symptoms with a clinician.

Common Influences
  • Illness/stress
  • Thyroid medication
  • Iodine status
  • Autoimmunity
  • Pregnancy

Ferritin

oxygen transport support energy availability iron storage
What Is It

Ferritin is a protein that stores iron in the body. Blood ferritin is often used as an estimate of iron reserves, though it can also rise with inflammation.

What It Measures

A marker that generally reflects iron storage.

Why It Matters

Helps contextualize iron reserves in energy and performance discussions; also can rise with inflammation.

Common Influences
  • Inflammation/infection
  • Iron intake
  • Blood loss (e.g., menstruation)
  • Supplementation
  • Liver health
