I am so grateful for my coach Samantha McCloud. So was very kind and patient with me as the last 4 months have been very difficult for me , due health issues with my husband and caring for a dear friend, who is 91. I was stressed and worn out which caused some setbacks for me. Samantha always lifted me up with her words and taught me how to listen to my body and to give myself some grace, which we all need! Samantha always gave me tools to work with and encouraged taking baby steps. She was amazing and never gave up on me. I will miss her very much but I now have the tools to succeed at my own pace. Getting older is defiantly difficult! I wish I had done this program earlier in life. Thank-you Samantha for sharing your knowledge and encouragement and your prayers. I have learned a lot and will continue healing and watching the videos! Tere Gardner 7-8-26

This program is a scam. Please don’t do it! Instead listen to Dr Axes podcast and you’ll learn far more and you’ll be able to take your health into your hands for free. Or better yet, find a naturopath doctor near you.
This program cost $8,000 for literally no personalized or individual care. You’ll be given some basic supplements like a multivitamin, probiotics, magnesium, some protein powder and given access to some recipes. That’s about it.
We were told my husbands health was super concerning and that he was headed down a dangerous path, so we signed up thinking he’d be getting a lot of care for his individual bloodwork panel to address his hormones and health. Since then, nothing that was “very concerning” has even been addressed or mentioned again.
Another thing is they don’t include follow up bloodwork. Like how in the world are we suppose to know for sure that his health is improving. Dr axe himself says “test, don’t guess” yet they only do the initial bloodwork to get you hooked and then won’t even retest a few months later to see what’s working or what things need more attention. I’m a huge believer in holistic healing, but this program is 100% a scam. If you want to pay $8,000 to be told to eat healthy, workout and take some supplements then this is the program for you! 🙃

Truly life-changing! I thought I knew a lot about health (not that I necessarily always incorporated those things, but had some knowledge), but entering the Health Institute world has been entering a world of incredibly deep knowledge far beyond what I knew and with such practical applications that it immediately impacted my health tremendously! The stomach pain that woke me up in the wee hours of the morning almost every night is gone. I feel stronger and more energetic than I have in a long time. I don’t have cravings, I am satisfied with my delicious whole food meals, and don’t walk around wondering when I’m going to get the next sweet treat! But it’s also so much more than that, it is this world of encouragement and support from every angle, my practitioner is utterly amazing and has been my biggest help and cheerleader— but there’s also a Facebook group that is always available to help answer questions or encourage or give meal ideas, it feels like a little village of people who are in this journey together and I just love it!! The videos of information from Dr. Axe or Dr. Cole are just amazing and again, go far beyond what I ever understood about our bodies and how everything works together, it’s not just about food. I hopped on a Bible study call last week and was in tears the whole time just so grateful for the opportunity to do this, to learn from these precious women, to grow in my faith, and to interact with other others who were going through the same process, I wouldn’t change a thing! This is truly a holistic, incredibly well organized program that has changed my life. I’m so very grateful.

Doris reviewed my blood test results for me, she was very thorough and explained everything in a manor easy to understand. If I had a question she patiently answered it and didn’t make me feel like it was an inconvenience. I learned many things and appreciate her time and knowledge with me.

over all I joined to get most out of blood test
though I know how to read label and get the most out food nutritionally over all, I had some lows and average scores that needed to be brought up.
that is where the program helped.

Well today is my 69th Birthday and no better way then to celebrate by sharing some encouraging words about
The Health Institute.
From day one I hopeful.
I came into this, knowing it was my last ditch effort to try to bring my body back into balance.
With rheumatoid arthritis, severe nerve damage in my left foot, arthritis in so many places and being in 24/7 pain for over 10 years. I had nothing to lose and everything to gain.
It might be expensive to join this plan, but nothing else I was doing was working and no medication was helping.
So my attitude from day, one was …
“ you go for it girl”
and
“you’re in the army now!”
Give it your 100% !
I haven’t been perfect in everything but, I can say I’ve been at 90% and everything.
And there are many days where I’ve been 100% on.
Life throws things at you that you can’t avoid. You just have to work your way through it and get back to center as quickly as possible.
The one thing I heard someone say in a video I watched was put on your own oxygen mask first .
That has really stuck with me.
I have never been a person to put on my oxygen mask first I always put others first.
And sometimes I fall back into that pattern, but quickly remember what she said and then I do an about face and put on my own oxygen mask first.
I have learned to say no.
That’s a first.
It was never about losing weight even though I needed to.
It was about healing my cells and getting my body back into rhythm of health.
To my surprise, the weight loss has been amazing.
If anything that Dr Axe sends me doesn’t agree with my system they find out what will and we try something else and I really appreciate that attention.
My health coach Koren has been very wonderful to work with.
I’ve never been one to venture out of my comfort zone of foods but, I have been challenged to do so and to come up with new ways of eating.
That’s been the biggest challenge. But I’m doing it.
I love the list of foods they gave me to choose from and the recipes were a great help when starting this program.
I greatly appreciate the truth and the facts behind what food can do to your body whether it be harmful or helpful they tell you the truth.
My husband shared with me the other night that he noticed I haven’t been complaining about all the pain I’m in.
I have been feeling better. 😊
I’m looking forward to saying goodbye to all of this horrible inflammation in my body. I know it will continue to go down!
I have faith and I have hope!
I’m not alone in this journey!
That in itself is a great gift.
Dr Axe is so encouraging in the things he says and shares. I really appreciate his method , his knowledge and his attitude.
I hope this encourages someone today.
You’re worth every penny!
You’re worth every sacrifice it may take to get where you want to be in your own body and health.
God bless each one.
Gotta run now. Time to eat!
Terri
P.S. 70 is looking exciting!

I can’t recommend the Health Institute and Dr. Josh Axe enough. Before working with Rebbeca, my health practitioner, I was struggling with ongoing gut health issues and low white blood cell counts related to Epstein-Barr virus. I had tried many things without finding lasting improvement.
Through their personalized guidance, support, and holistic approach, my gut health has improved dramatically. Even more exciting, my white blood cell count is finally increasing, which is a huge sign that my body is healing and that my Epstein-Barr virus is much better under control.
What made the biggest difference was not just the protocol itself, but the encouragement and knowledge I received every step of the way. I always felt heard, supported, and empowered to take control of my health.
I’m incredibly grateful for the care and expertise that helped me get my life back. If you’re dealing with chronic gut issues or feeling like you’ve run out of answers, I wholeheartedly recommend giving this program a try. The commitment is worth it, and I’m so thankful I took that first step.

I. wasn't able to complete questionnaire tried to complete several times. After I decided to cancel my application I WASNT ABLE to. its very. Hard to talk to someone for help and direction I am requesting a refund of $27. I am very disappointed in your service

After multiple delays in registering my blood test kit, the Health Institute finally accepted my blood sample and scheduled my appointment. Then, shortly before my scheduled appointment they canceled it and informed me that someone would reach out to reschedule. After not hearing anything from them for several months, I called them again. Again, they said they would have someone call me to reschedule. They never called back. I tried to go online to reschedule, but now the website link they provided sends me to a page that is no longer active. I tried to chat online with them, but still have not heard back. This has been going on for a year, and I still have not got an appointment, and I have not been able to get a refund. I will keep trying, but my experience with DrJosh Axe and the Health Institute has been terrible. I'm no longer interested in their services. I just want my money back.

The program is great. I like the mindset exercises that put me on a track for healing. The TCM eating protocol elevated my journey, by showing me how to eat, it made a big difference for me. My glucose numbers are trending in the right direction. I highly recommend this program.

Reply from The Health Institute With Dr. Josh Axe
I didnot receive the results I should have gotten based on how expensive this was. Way overpriced and I corrected my problem essentially by myself with trial and error by listening to my body.

Reply from The Health Institute With Dr. Josh Axe
I really didn't know anything about the program. I was interested in what the blood test would indicate about my declining health and life. Once I started the program, I gave it everything I had and stuck to the plan as best I could. I generally looked at it as a moment by moment decision for my future self. I wrote out a statement that summed it up for people if they asked: I am giving myself permission to make healing choices for my mind, body and spirit. My first indication something was different was 3 days after starting the program (cleaned out my fridge and pantry day one). I noticed the swelling in my face and neck were GONE! Since then I've noticed no acid reflux and was able to stop taking my medication. My blood pressure is better and have been able to come off of that medication also. No more hot flashes (I'm in my 50's). My digestion is much better. I don't have random pains in my abdomen or gall bladder issues anymore. I haven't been sick at all since starting the program. No more earaches which were a very common occurrence. Plus, the fluid in my ears is finally gone. I'm healing faster, have almost zero cravings. No end of day swelling in my ankles.
And the coolest thing is someone mentioned skin tags the other day and I instinctively reached up to my neck to feel mine. THEY WERE GONE! All of my skin tags are gone and I didn't even realize it.
I would recommend this program for anyone that is struggling to figure out what's wrong. Your doctor tells you your blood work is in range, or you have to go on this medicine, or you're just getting old.
I have so much more energy now. Before I had to push if I had a day that I felt good. Now, I just wake up the next morning and keep working. It's truly amazing! I thank God and this program for helping me get my life back.

Didn’t know what to expect when I signed up for this program. Ready to enter phase 3 now. So grateful for the support, and encouragement Alexis, my practitioner has provided. Have lost some weight, eliminated indigestion, and bloated stomach. I have become more aware and careful of what I’m eating. Excited to be on this journey.

Reply from The Health Institute With Dr. Josh Axe
Honestly, I really needed help with my health but I wish didn't end up in debt 8,000 dollars for nothing. I don't think I was made aware of how little I was actually getting, I was also not made aware of the time commitment required for the program. I shouldn't have to chase my practioner online when I paid so much for this. You only get 30 minute sessions on zoom, I didn't really feel helped with that little hands on work. Additionally, this was a pretty generic, 4 month program I don't believe was worth the money when I have had a severe health problem for nearly 3 years. I think the sales person over estimated how good the program is for the chronically ill.
Sales people shouldn't prey on vulnerable people, if they don't think you are the right fit there should be integrity enough to consider a better option or referral. It was also concerning no follow up blood work was done to even see if any improvements had been made at all. Basically this is a program that is unproven to help anyone even though there are claims to the contrary. So I'm in debt with nothing to show for it, this is very disappointing as I've thought highly of Dr. Axe.
The only way to fix this would be to lower the price or give people more value for that much money. I can't recommend this program for people with serious health issues unaddressed rather than people simply looking to improve their health.

Reply from The Health Institute With Dr. Josh Axe
The advisor took time to ask good questions and really listen to my health concerns with the intent to understand. He took a lot of extra time to explain the program and all that it entails. I walked away from this first meeting feeling truly valued and supported.

Reply from The Health Institute With Dr. Josh Axe
A multitude of great resources, especially the one-to-one time with the health coach. Learned so much more about healthy eating habits, supplement support, that I thought I already knew! So much knowledge to be gained by the videos, calls, printable! Wish I discovered the program soon. Improved sleep, energy, focus and LESS PAIN and inflammation ! Thank you MADELEINE PAGE!

Reply from The Health Institute With Dr. Josh Axe
So my wife looked into their program. They start you off with a zoom call and show you a little chart to "educate" you on your cellular degeneration and the difference between healthy cells and what they call "zombie" cells. The woman told my wife she had looked at her numbers and found a lot of "zombie" cells.
My wife had paid the $27 to get started (this was a $90 off "special offer"). The punchline though is that somebody neglected to send the "at home cellular blood work panel kit" that was supposed to test hormone levels etc. so what "numbers" was she looking at?
The real kicker is that they want 8500 bucks to do something that you can do on your own if you just use Google and educate yourself for real. Stay the hell away from these people they are shysters.

This has been a great experience. I've learned to improve my eating, sleeping, digestion, thinking and exercise habits. During this time, I lost over 10lbs and 2" in my waist, while eating more food than ever. This has been a great life lesson. I appreciate all the resources and my practitioner, Katie Lane, for all the feedback and encouragement. Highly recommend!

I am glad I took the course. I have learned valuable information and now have the right tools in my Health Journey "Kit".

I can't say enough good things about the Health Institute, Dr Axe and his team, especially my practitioner Erica. I came completely hopeless in my body ever changing and working properly, and I am leaving fulfilled my time full of hope, tools, and some of the best teaching and information to carry on through the rest of my life. I wish I would have found this at a younger age. I have had a lifetime of my body working against me. I found how to make it work with me. Our bodies were created to heal if we treat them properly and care for every part of it down to the cellular level which is key. This is an invest me in you, you control how successful you are. You have to love yourself enough to be all in and it is worth it!! I thought I was trapped and I found a way out. Use every tool they give you, it is support in so many ways. It is a definite partnership with them and me. I have never felt as good as I do now. Thank you, Dr. Axe, Erica and team!
