Skin, Bloat & Inflammation Panel

Consider this panel if

• Skin that flares, or is slow to heal

  Low zinc affects wound healing, skin barrier function and taste; low vitamin D is common in anyone with inflammatory skin conditions.

• Bloated most days, not just after certain meals

  Bloating that doesn't track with what you eat is worth checking differently. hs-CRP and ESR show whether inflammation is driving it.

• Skin and gut symptoms arrived around the same time

  When both flare together, low-grade inflammation and low vitamin D are common threads.

Why it matters

Looks for inflammation your body may be running quietly, and checks whether the nutrients behind skin repair and immune function are where they should be.

hs-CRP rises within hours of inflammation starting and falls just as quickly. ESR takes weeks to climb and weeks to settle. Read together, they show whether something is active now, has been running for a while, or neither. Vitamin D and zinc answer a different question: whether your skin and immune system have what they need to repair.

• Whether inflammation is active now or has been running for a while
• Vitamin D and zinc, the nutrients behind skin repair and immunity
• Something measurable behind flares, bloating and slow healing
