I came to the program feeling like I was dying, literally. Within just a few short weeks of starting the program, I started feeling more energetic. I haven’t been perfect at following the protocols, but I’ve embraced the “progress over perfection” mentality. Now, after 8 weeks in, I have been able to drop over 3 inches from my waist, but more importantly I’ve learned how to deal with stress so much better. All in all, for the first time in years, I feel like I’m living each day to the fullest. I am so blessed to have found this program and will be forever grateful to all the practitioners for helping me learn how to live and thrive.

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!

I want to take a few moments to thank…
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.

Game changer for getting me back to balance!
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!

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.

We're especially grateful for your kind words about Josh, and we'll be sure to share your feedback with him. Providing compassionate guidance and support is something our practitioners care deeply about.
