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

Since March, I have attended The Health Institute with a huge sense of enthusiasm. The program has been most rewarding for me. I’ve gained so much knowledge and much of that was so surprising to me that I couldn’t put it down at night. During the day at class time I listened with great intent to the brilliant practitioners and leaders such as Dr. Axe, Dr. Motley and Dr. Coles presentation. Much of the time I was amazed to hear such a wide range of topics that I was not expecting in a good way. I was so pleased with every staff member that had assisted me in my educational process, and they have been extremely supportive. My personal Practitioner Andrea was always there for me with support, guidance and informed me with pertinent information that fit my needs. Andrea was so very spot on with providing the supplements that I needed right on time. It’s wonderful to have someone like her during this time to find my way around in a new environment. Much thanks to my instructor and Practitioner Sian for her, assisting me with navigating the technical aspect of the program. I was somewhat lost and she jumped in without me asking for help. Wonderful Sian! If I could, I would have added a long list of great individuals who deserve a lot of praise. Juhwan was the first person who introduced my husband and me to The Health Institute. Juhwan was very kind, respectful and supportive as he helped us navigate the best path for our needs. Signing up for the program was a lot to take in, but he made us feel at ease and explained everything clearly, and we felt positive during the process. I soon realized that in my heart and mind that my health and extended years of lifetime is worth the financial sacrifice. Deep down inside, I knew that God would provide. I felt peace and much excitement for this adventure. The gift of the knowledge that I acquire is extremely valuable to me. I can pass this along to the important people in my life. I am willing to pay the price for this physical, spiritual and mental piece of future sustenance. Many thanks to the very beautiful people of The Health Institute for their service and support! 💖

The practioner assigned to me was great! The support through the videos playback and Facebook support really helped. You are also given an app with a dashboard that gives you a weekly guidance to follow. All around a good program to get you started on healing.

I had the opportunity to participate in The Health Institute’s program and work with Becky Ubelhor, RN, FDN-P, and wanted to share how much I appreciated her support. Becky brings a wonderful combination of clinical knowledge, compassion, and genuine care. She takes the time to listen, explains things clearly, and meets you exactly where you are without judgment. Her thoughtful and encouraging approach made every interaction feel supportive and empowering. Her level of care and attentiveness truly stood out to me, and I can highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate practitioner.

For me this program is an answer to prayer. For several years I wanted to eat in a way that is pleasing to God and treating my body as His temple. I did not have the resources. I tried doing it on my own but that was ineffective. I started praying that He would help me. Through Dr Axe, his staff, and Facebook group; I am learning a new way of eating for life. I have resources for learning, staff and fellow students to walk with me and encourage when needed. I cannot say enough of good about his program. Not one second of buyer’s remorse. 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I also have no doubt that this program, staff and students are prayed over. I am just shy of starting phase 2 of 4 phases. I LOVE THIS!

Today is my graduation day! No cap and gown or pomp and circumstance… just a much healthier body that after decades of “diets” has found real - and I believe lasting, change. I was so hesitant to do this program because it seemed ridiculously expensive with no guarantees of the outcome. But I took the plunge! One day about midway through the program, I told my practitioner that I wasn’t sure if I was being duped, but if so, the placebo effect was working!😂😂 Since January (four months ago), among many other things, I have lost 22 lbs (many more to go, but I know now that I can), dropped my A1c from 7.3 to 5.6, have discovered new foods that I really enjoy, and have learned so much about nutrition. In Phase 4, I learned the word that absolutely describes how and what I’m feeling - “vitality!” I can’t stop telling people, “I feel SO good!”😁 *Thank you to my practitioner Beth Davis, for being the patient recipient of my many questions, a great encourager, and for celebrating the wins with me. I can’t imagine a better “companion” to walk this journey with me! I am feeling so grateful and full of hope for a healthier future! To you who are considering this program, I feel your hesitation! Even after signing up, I had "buyer's remorse." But, I can honestly say, it has been a life-changer for me. Worth every hard earned penny I spent. If you choose to do it, do your best to follow the process, communicate with your practitioner, do your lessons and worksheets, seek to better understand how nutrition works, and don’t give up! You can do this!

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.
