The program really worked for me because it was well organized and easy too follw. I felt well supported by my persomal guide as well as the facebook group. I really enjoyed the Q and A with Dr Axe every week. There were always things yo learn that madebit easy to stay engaged with the process of changing the food that i aet and also how i changed my daily habits. Everything changed but in reasonable steps that felt doable. Overall i exceeded my goals, i created a whole lifestyle change and i lost 30 lbs. I was a bit sceptical at first that i would be ablebto lose weight because i had been gaining for so many years but i commitmend 100percant. I could see right from the start how support everyone was a knew they all truely wanted me to succeed. THre was more information available to me than i could actually use but naturally i learned or heard just what i needed. Thanks Excellent team.

Cellular Regeneration Program - false claims, waste of money
I had a consultation with a rep from the Health Institute, specifically stating I had tried so many natural products for my autoimmune, but nothing helped. She marketed the Cellular Regeneration Program in such a way that I would definitely see results. No blood tests are run but the program involved 4 months of elimination of specific foods and taking daily Ancient Nutrition supplements. I trusted the program as associated with Dr Axe. I spent almost $8000, followed the program strictly and took all supplements yet 4 months later hardly any improvement in my skin condition In my final consult with the health coach it was suggested I have a test which costs around another $400 not to mention a DR would need to analyze it and most likely further pills to be taken. This was after I spent almost $8000. Why wasn’t this suggested before I took the program? Months later I see Dr Axe offering blood tests yet when we join the program they say blood tests didn’t indicate what’s going on but yet now they selling it. I think if you want to lose weight and increase energy this program will help but their claims of helping with autoimmune is misleading. On a lot of the zooms Dr Axe recommended acupuncture or try this or that, Yet people were doing the elimination diet and taking the supplements. I was hugely disappointed considering all the money paid and I did everything I was told to. They also seem to have a program where one size fits all, for example many people will be on the same elimination diet and taking same supplements yet have different health concerns. Some people were also commenting on the private Facebook group that they didn’t see results and having spoken to another participant she felt the same way I did. $8000 is a lot of money for most people and for what we received it was not worth it. On can buy those pills online or at a store and with will power follow the elimination diet. There were weekly group zooms with Dr Axe and I think that’s what we were ultimately paying for. For a company that is supposed to be built on integrity, I think they should re-evaluate. I know we sign a waiver that they cannot guarantee results but when people are desperate and told that it has worked for so many others etc one takes it at their word.

We understand how discouraging it can feel to invest months of effort, hope, and resources into a wellness journey and not experience the level of change you were seeking. Autoimmune concerns can be especially complex.
To offer clarity, the Cellular Health Regenerator program is an education-based, multi-phase system focused on nutrition, lifestyle practices, and cellular-health support. It is not a medical treatment, and it does not diagnose or manage autoimmune conditions. Many students do experience improvements in their visual auto immune symptoms; as well as energy, digestion, inflammation patterns, and overall well-being, but each person’s response is shaped by their unique health history.
Lab testing is always optional. Some students elect to add advanced testing later if they want deeper insight into underlying patterns. These tests are not required, and recommendations can vary based on a student’s goals, symptoms, and progress through the phases.
The Health Institute is a wellness education organization founded by Dr. Josh Axe, supported by a team of highly trained health practitioners and educators dedicated to evidence-informed, cellular-health–based coaching.
The program includes structured nutrition education, phase-based protocols, practitioner support, community accountability, and weekly group teaching—not medical diagnosis, medical care, or claims of outcomes for autoimmune conditions.

Cellular analysis a scam
I just bought the cellular analysis on sale and I was hoping to get some insight into obviously what might be going wrong and some supplements that might work considering my symptoms; that was what was advertised anyway, a questionnaire followed by a health consultation and maybe a blood test? What When I got on the call, I was surprised because the person looking back at me looked about 15 years old and had braces and called themselves “a health consultant” and I felt relatively silly speaking to this young person about anything concerning my health. As a 43-year-old woman, it was at first an interesting experience speaking with this young person and I quickly started to feel like I was being Pranked, not because he was a bad person, but rather because he was asking me questions that seemed quite out of place from the mouth of a teenager! So after a few minutes, I politely told him I needed to end the call. When Dr. Axe recommends this program, he says that we will be connected with a “senior health advisor.” Now, of course that language could cover any number of people, but I didn’t realize he meant “senior” in high school. I don’t recommend this. I think it’s an absolute crock. It’s like hundreds of dollars down to 27. I was duped! I used to watch Dr. Axe stuff and I won’t be doing so anymore.

We understand how uncomfortable it can feel when an interaction doesn’t match what you were expecting—especially when you’re hoping for clarity about your health and guidance you can trust. Your experience matters, and we appreciate you sharing how the consultation felt from your perspective.
To clarify, the Cellular Health Analysis is an educational session designed to review your questionnaire, discuss your health goals, and help determine whether a deeper wellness program is the right next step. These calls are led by trained advisors who follow a structured process. Their role is to provide guidance based on your assessment, not medical diagnosis or treatment.
The Cellular Health Analysis does not include a blood test or supplement plan. It serves as a starting point for those wanting an introductory conversation about their wellness journey and to explore whether the broader Cellular Health Program aligns with their needs.

A Tremendous Blessing
This program was truly a blessing for our family. It helped my husband tremendously while he was going through cancer. The information we received and the supplements provided supported him in regaining his strength and even gaining weight again.
The positive mind-set component was life-changing. It helped shift his outlook and brought so much hope and clarity during a difficult time. And the power of prayer combined with the encouragement woven throughout the program made an incredible impact on his spirit and healing journey.
The Dr. Axe team was consistently kind, helpful, and supportive. We always felt cared for and guided.
We are deeply grateful for the experience. Through this process, my husband has truly thrived and is now showing no signs of cancer.
Thank you for your support, knowledge, and the compassion you showed us.

The mindset component, along with the powerful combination of encouragement, prayer, and support, is something we believe can have a lasting impact on health, especially during difficult times.

The program was very good
The program was very good. I have always followed and like Dr. Axe.
I'm on fixed income and need to keep my health in check so the program helped me greatly.
The things I was hoping to get through I still have, my migraines, aches in my hips and on top of that I have just got planterfaseitis.
Confused a little but hoping the program is still accessible, so I'm going back to the restart it over again and this time hopes what ever I missed I will be able to accomplish.
Response from The Health Institute With Dr. Josh AxeNov 21, 2025
Hi Linda!
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re so glad to hear that you found value in the program and that it’s been a helpful resource for maintaining your health. It’s completely understandable that you’d want to revisit the program to make sure you’re getting the most out of it.
We know that healing takes time and consistency, and sometimes revisiting the material can help clarify things and bring new insights. Migraines, aches, and other challenges can be frustrating, but with patience and focus, many students continue to see improvements as they move through the phases at their own pace.
With respect,

To better help the company I definitely…
To better help the company I definitely will be honest no reason not to, I didn’t think it worked for me to stop all my vitamins that I was taking before I started taking Dr. Axe recommended supplements, one of the reasons is because I was already taking three of the supplements that he recommended, and I paid more through the program for my supplements than I did through ancient nutrition that was not worth it to me. I would’ve been better off without the supplements, instead the program should ask what supplements am I already taken? so that they don’t make me take the same thing and pay more for it. And some of us make a big sacrifice to join the program for the amount of money that it is,
I think it would be great if they gave us an option of taking supplements or not or get more information on what supplements we’re already taking so it was a bad start for me when I got my supplements and realized it was quite a few that I was already taking which are three.
I tried to cancel the supplements, but that was not an option.
I also missed a few of the first Q&A‘s with Dr. Axe at the beginning because they had my timing wrong, I was logging in at the wrong time, that was corrected after,
I feel that this program works much better for a person who does not have a full-time job or has a spouse to help with every day Life, as I am a single mom and full-time worker, and that was hard and stressful at times, the time went very fast for me and with busyness I couldn’t catch up and kind of stressed my own self out.
Also, when listening to Dr. Axe Q&A’s, I would get certain information information and then get A different one from my practitioner and that just left me confused at times,
One thing I could say that I learned is mindset, to shift your mind to thinking differently I think that’s very important because some of us don’t even know how to do that, but with the steps through the program, I learned how to do that and continue to learn I am still in phase 4, and trying to work through it and will go over it again until I get it
Thank you I hope this helped
☝️🙌🙏

Hi Sonia!
Thank you for sharing such an honest and thoughtful reflection. It’s clear how much dedication you’ve brought to this process while balancing the demands of work, single parenting, and daily life. That takes real strength, and we appreciate you trusting us with your experience.
Your feedback about supplements, scheduling, and the learning curve in the early phases is valuable. Every student begins with a unique health history, and understanding what someone is already using can absolutely help us provide clearer guidance and prevent any confusion. We’re grateful you highlighted this, as it helps us continue improving how we support each person entering the program.
We’re encouraged to hear that the mindset practices have been meaningful for you and that you’re committed to continuing through Phase 4 at a pace that serves you.

My favorite part was the one on one…
My favorite part was the one on one counseling. The on-going videos and information really helped me to stay on plan. I lost 20 lbs and completely eliminated reflux by following this health plan. I had it for over 17 years. I initially joined to help with my inflammation and while it isn’t totally gone, my body is feeling energetic and in a lot less pain. Thank you!
