This has been a very healing time for me! I truly was a train wreck when I started the program, not sure why I couldn’t connect the missing dots. Now I feel grounded and balanced. Kristen my practitioner truly listened to me and offered me such great advice. She never judged me but for the first time ever I felt heard and understood! I’m walking away after 4 short months truly a changed person! I’m sleeping great! Sugar cravings are gone! I have a ton of energy and my moods are so much better! I also feel like myself again! I’m not feeling bloated and uncomfortable! This was really a great program! I loved the different supplements but my absolute favorite is the Liv120! I really can’t say THANK YOU enough for guiding me and helping me get back into balance!

I want to take a few moments to thank the Dr. Axe Team and my coach(Savannah)for all the wonderful help and support and the helpful advice that I received! I’ve learned a lot of new things that I needed for myself and to help for all the new things that are negativity showing up in my body, and I want to continue doing what I learned that works so much better for my body,in what I eat and the supplements I take and the exercise that works for me. Even though I don’t feel totally great all the time (do to healing mentally and emotionally from tramas) in doing this program it gave me a self confidence in myself that I’m worth the effort to be the best healthiest person I can be! May God bless everyone’s effort in their journey with the program with success.

Very disappointed with the emotional sales pitch.
First of all, I have had chronic health issues for years, with almost no help from the 8 medical specialists and multiple general practitioners. Been to many nutritionists, chiropractors, ECT, etc, with many diagnosis, like Lyme, etc, etc, etc.
I have been watching Dr Axe for years and always felt that he wanted to help people actually get the help they need. Thinking outside the box, offering real solutions rather than just managing symptoms.
I ordered a $127 blood test discounted to $97 through a Dr Axe Facebook ad promising true cellular health blood work analysis.
I expected specialized tests, but most, if not all, were standard labs with some added ratios and lacking tests that my family doctor wanted to see.
During intake, the reviewer seemed to misunderstand some results, which made me doubt the process. I was very fatigued at the time and the abnormal labs gave me hope that I'd found answers. I was told that it was customized with ongoing lab work and had a guarantee, so I enrolled. Later, I found the program leaned heavily on a long questionnaire rather than my lab results and the guarantee had requirements that I was unable to meet. Plus, the program didn't include any lab work.
I also got conflicting information from different departments about what was included. Even after getting a partial refund, I am still left feeling like the process and expectations haven't been clearly laid out.
I want to give a shout-out to my health coach, Josh, who did a phenomenal job and taught me some helpful tips for raising my blood pressure.
I also want to point out that I feel The Health Institute does truly want to help, but the supplements are mostly the same for everyone, rather than very customized like expected. And, I feel the program is way over priced, even with all the info on the portal and the group calls.
It seems to be a program for the masses with lots of general info to try to cover as much as possible.
I'm sure it's helpful for people that need guidance to clean up their diet and switch to a highly nutritional diet. But I have been doing that for years.
So, if you do sign up, be prepared to spend 2 or more hours per week studying their online material and or on group calls. And make sure you are able to cover the $8,500. I would not recommend to plan on the program improving your heath, allowing you to work more hours, which would in turn allow you to pay for it like I expected.

No gimmicks, real direction for the r!oad to health
I found my experience to be very helpful..my practitioner, Shannon Sieber, was wonderful...very helpful with educating me with any questions I had, very patient, kind and knowledgeable...super helpful with different ideas to try if I needed recommendations for health related things.
I do like their supplements and the fact that they truly believe in whole food as the best medicine for our health.
I do feel that the cost of the program is a bit higher than it could be.
Overall, if you are looking for a program that has the same values you do regarding truly being healthy, with good direction, good education and a great outcome, then, you will enjoy this program!

We are very happy with THI. My husband and I enrolled into this program. It changed our lives for the better. Being close to retirement age, we started to experience some health concerns. We are now at the last week of phase 3, and we experienced huge break throughs. My husband lost 20 pounds, I lost 10 pounds. Both of us are lot more energetic, his insulin level is normal range. My blood pressure is in the healthy range, had aches and bloating is gone. Much less stress, cortisol belly is gone. My Red blood cell count is normalized too. Huge thanks for Koren to walking with us through this experience and encouraging us, and answering our questions patiently. We enjoy the very nice community on the Facebook group. There is a lot of useful information out there, and lots of practical guidance from practitioners. Thank you again Koren for guiding us through our health journey, we really enjoy our meetings and useful recommendations from you.

I cannot say enough good things about this program. The cost took me aback, but the support, supplements, and knowledge gained made it well worth the money. Although I had made many changes towards a healthier life style prior to the program I still battled with acid reflux in addition to having Parkinsons and A-fib. My acid reflux and leaky gut have been healed and my cardiologist recently told me I have a strong heart. My practioner was so helpful and encouraging and knowledgeable. The changes and new routines I have made I know I will continue to make. I have just finished my first week of Concierge and continuing the protocol of the last four months has been easy as I want to continue to heal. What I really like about The Health Institute has been learning WHY the protocol works. By focusing on fixing the needs of the cellular level to work optimally other functions are working better. My sleep has improved, I am now excersizing and enjoying it, acid reflux-gone, leaky gut-gone, I am dealing with stress better, I have been able to lose weight with the addition of adding complex carbs and some fruit to my diet, which I haven't had in years. If you are interested in getting healthier and willing to make some lifestyle changes, I highly recommend this program!

I have been following the program regularly for the jpast 4 months. I was always encouraged by Shena, my practitioner. Sometimes I really didn't feel like cooking the recommended menu but I was able to get past that and stick with it. It is not easy but it is very productive. I did lose 4 pounds without even trying. (Even though I did not need to lose weight). Just an added benefitted.
My numbers now look really good and I am committed to staying on course and continuing the program even though I am graduating in a week.

I have learned so much working with the Health Institute and my practitioner, Angela. She has helped me achieve my goals of lowering my blood sugar and eating healthy, maintaining movement and good sleep. I now read labels staying away from seed oils and sugar content. I’m adding more protein and fresh cooked veggies to my diet. The supplements have made a hugh difference in my gut healing. I’m excited about my future health journey and staying the course!

I had a wonderful experience with The Health Institute. My personal practitioner truly supported me every step of the way — always encouraging, never judgmental — one of the main reasons I was able to stick with the program.
The education was another huge highlight. I learned why certain foods, habits, and supplements matter for healing, not just what to do, and that knowledge is something I will always carry with me.
The supplements were high quality, and I genuinely felt the difference — more energy, better sleep, better digestion. Between the community support and staying in communication with my practitioner, I never felt alone in the process.
I'm so grateful for The Health Institute and my practitioner — for all the support and grace they gave me to get healthy again.

Overall this program is well worth the investment, though I would say if you begin it, be ready to set aside enough time to really benefit from all it as to offer. Personally, I went in with physical health goals, but what I unexpectedly gained from the most were some mental and spiritual improvements which are still compounding even though the program has ended. I suspect those improvements will eventually result in achieving those physical health goals I started with.

My experience was transforming, health-wise. About a week in, I started feeling more energetic and a couple weeks later I was starting to feel less stress. This program has given me a new outlook on the way to think, eat, and feel healthier. I sleep better. I move better. My digestion is better. My body has been strengthened from the inside out. I want to make better choices for my life and I know that I’m not perfect, but I’m okay with that. God says that we are not flawless, so He offers us grace to cover our shortcomings. So when we slip up we need to give ourselves grace and look to Him for the strength to do better. This program has given me a new way to live, and I intend to use all I’ve learned from Dr. Axe, the Practioner assigned to work with me, and the materials provided to me, to enjoy it.

It all sounds very promising
It all sounds very promising. On the $27 call I heard repeatedly “when you” not if you. There was a 100% guarantee that I signed. I paid over $7K and saw NO IMPROVEMENTS. I went back and forth with them and they didn’t back up their guarantee because I was in no way satisfied. They shipped me a book and offered additional supplements- why would I want more supplements when the others didn’t help. I’m sure it’s helped some people but I was left distraught and in major debt with nothing to show for it.
