The Health Institute With Dr. Josh AxeReviews of thehealthinstitute.com

I am so grateful for Alexis at The Health Institute. From the very beginning, she has taken the time to truly listen, understand my concerns, and look at my health as a whole rather than just treating symptoms. Her approach to functional medicine has been thoughtful, thorough, and incredibly empowering. I never feel rushed or overlooked—she explains things clearly, helps me understand the “why” behind what’s going on in my body, and works with me to create a realistic, personalized plan for healing and long-term wellness. What stands out most is her genuine care and dedication. Alexis brings both deep knowledge and a calm, supportive presence that makes a big difference in the healing process. I finally feel like I have a practitioner who is truly invested in helping me get to the root cause and improve my overall health. I highly recommend The Health Institute and Alexis specifically to anyone looking for a more personalized, integrative approach to their health.

Frustrated with going around in circles with wellness issues around a thyroid diagnosis, I wanted to understand the "why" behind the ever increasing symptoms I was feeling. After years of being on medication, supplements, and dietary restrictions, things were getting worse not better. Hence, my reaching out to The Health Institute. I am so glad I did. This is not just another program. It is an educational experience that teaches you what the body truly needs to optimally function at the cellular level. This is a journey, not a program. You come to understand the root causes for issues that you are experiencing and why just treating the symptoms doesn't work in the long term. The goal is to bring healing to your body so that it works the way it was designed to work. The coursework is all encompassing incorporating body, mind and spirit. There are multiple live zoom calls each week that focus on topics addressing stress, hormones, gut imbalance, digestion and so much more. I have investing my time in participating in at least 4 of those calls each week. If I miss one, they are all recorded and include the text. This allows me to go back and review a call or watch one that I did not attend live. These options as well as other opportunities to interact with experts, ask questions, grow in understanding of numerous health concerns others are dealing with builds a community of practitioners and students where "progress over perfection" is practiced. You realize you're not alone in this journey towards cellular health. In the time I have been a student of The Health Institute, I have come to understand the why behind my own body's resistance to getting better even though I was doing all the "right" things. I have learned to be patient with the process, to apply concepts at a pace that works for me, how to make adjustments to address my purpose and needs, and focus on small and sustainable steps. This is in large part due to all the wonderful and smart nutritional practitioners/experts available through The Health Institute. They teach, encourage, and personalize the journey for their students. I, for one, am so grateful that I took the leap of faith and became a part of this caring family.

The Health Institute has been a huge help to me by allowing me to have a voice and an opportunity to actually work alongside with medical professionals who truly listen to the issues/symptoms my body are experiencing. I needed to discover ways to extend my health and well being rather than just throwing pharmaceuticals at the problems after they become a larger issue. I have enjoyed the Health Institute's courses they have. These courses have aided in my slowing "life" down because My schedule is very full and busy. I take a couple of hours a week, make an appointment with myself for those couple of hours, and go to these courses as therapy for my body, soul, and spirit. I have an amazing nurse practioner who also encourages me and helps me in this journey. I began my journey around the first of March. I have already seen positive results. Diverticulosis has calmed down and my energy level has begun to increase within the last week and 1/2.

I am very grateful for this program of health and healing! I’ve been able to learn so much and put it into practice with the help of the group page with student's and practitioner’s feedback. As well, I enjoyed one to one communication with my very own practitioner for 4 months. Now it’s principles are a life time commitment!

I am at the end of Phase 2. Working with Koren has been great! She is very helpful and responds quickly. The food portion of this process has been the easy part for me as I love veggies of all types. The supplements have been good. I chose the vanilla powder so I can add cocoa or not with my veggies and fruit smoothie. This process has really helped with the inflammation in my body. I feel better and don't have as much knee problems as I did. My challenges are time frames of eating and eating enough meat as I tend to prefer plant protein instead of meat. But I'm working on trusting the process and following the guidelines each day. I am grateful for Dr. Axe and all the people that are part of this journey of information and a change in my health lifestyle. God is good!

I love all the different ways they offer support to you besides just having a practitioner-From a facebook group, to Live Q&As, and in between! The supplements were also a huge benefit to my life, and I noticed a huge change in my energy levels and quality of my skin while taking them! I loved that the program is not "one fits all" like other programs I have done, they tailer this program specifically to ME! I have learned so much through the videos and homework, along with the live events each week.

I had an introductory consultation with Stephanie Bloom from the Health Institute. She was friendly, extremely knowledgeable and provided very helpful information about cellular energy, the role of inflammation in the development of disease states and how illness can be reversed when cells are given the proper environment through diet and lifestyle. It was quite a valuable conversation! I truly appreciate her time and expertise.

I came into this program to find out what was going on in my body. I was desiring to lose weight but everything I tried was failing. I was desiring to lose about twenty pounds. I wanted to find out why lo and behold I found out some things about my health. I endorse this program because it investigates the why and brings real solutions on there findings. I am a huge natural and holistic style of healing and they are exactly that type of wellness group. I was also was experiencing some brain fog, and inflammation and a few more things! All is being addressed. I am currently in phase 2 and already my clothes are fitting looser, brain fog gone. I feel more balance and using some tools to manage the stress, which has contributed to the weight gain, inflammation. I have begun exercising more, which is a win for me. This program and my practitioner are helping me be accountable. We only get one body so it’s up to us to be a good steward over it. Thank you team for all your help. If you are on the fence take the plunge and thrive, the program for me is worth it. Oh and by the way I am over 50 so you are never too young or old to pay attention to your health and wellbeing.
