Loved the support and getting the right supplements for my body. I was in a weight loss stall for about eight months but once on this plan my weight has started to come off again!

I, like most health-conscious individuals try to improve their menus of foods and supplements to create a good balance relating to nutrition. After years of adding, subtracting, and finding new methods, I was becoming more confused and feeling less healthy. After a short interview with a Dr. Axe Team Member, I felt that I needed to try a stronger, more proven path. I just graduated my four-month program with even better results and more answers than questions for the first time ever. My Axe Practitioner, Hanna made the journey comfortable and effective. The ongoing learning will constantly improve as well. Thanks to all!

I bought a cellular core health test and once I got on the call to receive my results, it became immediately high pressure sales. Red flags right off the bat with questions like what is it costing you to not address this. Anyone in sales or business knows that’s leading to a high pressure offer. The woman was nice enough, but it took forever to get to my actual results. Then, she acted as if my results were much worse than they were and went into the high pressure $8500 offer! It felt so scammy and gross. I sent my results to my functional medicine doctor and ran them by my MD and both confirmed my numbers were in normal ranges and not even remotely as negative as the test claimed. Unethical all around, which is disheartening for a business that claims to be faith based. It’s not worth the test! Dr. Cabrals at home lab testing is much more ethical in my experience. Even if the woman had acknowledged my results did not warrant an $8500 program but recommended some other options or real solutions, that would have been better. She also could not describe how the program actually works in terms of measurable results, and used vague promises of complete cellular homeostasis within four months- yet there’s no final test to confirm anything has changed.
Red flags all around. Please do better.

I’ve never had to pay a company to have a sales person reach out to me, but that’s exactly what happened here - I paid $27 to have a sales pitch for an hour. And while the consultant I spoke with was a lovely person, the double barrel hit came at the end of the hour-long Zoom meeting. During our review of my cellular system report, I shared that I had recently looked into a program with a local doctor, and the cost of it ($8K) was more than I could afford, so toward the end of the hour when the consultant told me that Dr. Axe’s program cost about the same as the local doctor, I was surprised and disappointed. The consultant was breezing through a presentation which I was viewing on my phone so I could hardly read anything about what was being offered in the program. I asked if she would send it to me and she said she had to figure out how to send it to me. Huh? So I should commit to a $8000 program without reading the details and fine print? Uh, no. I can hardly see the value based on what I was told, and I would not spend another dollar for this program. Hugely disappointed! At least the nice lady I spoke with got paid for the hour with the $27 I spent.

My practitioner supported me through the ups and downs of house remodeling, a knee replacement and illness. I couldn’t cook for several weeks, which made following the plan extremely difficult. Each time we talked she listened and shared her screen with me, showing things my husband could purchase to help. She kept me from discouragement by reminding me that perfection is not the goal, but rather doing what I can to achieve the changes that I desire.
My husband’s practitioner gave the same support.

Hi, I have been on this journey for 4 months and it has been amazing! This program taught me so many things I did not know about. In the beginning, I thought losing weight was my biggest goal to accomplish but really it didn’t end up that way. I learned about how food can mess you up and how it can heal your body. I was desperate and fed up with how I felt , hated myself for always trying so hard to feel better in my own skin. These four months have taught me so much. Food does not own me and I am in control of what I do to keep me healthy and happy. My mindset has completely changed. I ended up losing 15 pounds which I haven’t done in years!!! My lifestyle has changed and I never want to go back to where I was. God did give us a body that can heal and we just need to treat it with love and understanding. This program gives you the tools you need to be successful, you need to use them! . My practitioner Sydney was my biggest cheerleader and always there when I needed her. The support system is amazing. I say to stay focused and use the resources that have been provided. I plan on continuing this lifestyle journey until God calls me home. My take away is don’t give up on yourself you are with it and it truly works! I’m looking forward to a bright, healthy future for myself and for anyone out there goes on this journey—- you got this!!

My practitioner was great, very encouraging and motivating and had good suggestions for my situation, I looked forward to the calls. I appreciated all the info available to me, videos, recipes, especially the Facebook group.

I came to the program to learn more about my body but mainly to be held accountable in the things I was learning. Although I have some knowledge in natural health, cellular level health was new to me. It made perfect sense to understand why my body was not responding to the supplements I was already taking. I had a better understanding of what it meant to heal from the inside out on a cellular level. I do believe the program is a bit costly. However, we will spend money on our health either in a positive way or a negative one. This means either fighting sickness or preventing it to the best of your ability. I chose the positive one. I will take all that I learned and build upon it. It does not stop here.

I already knew Dr Josh ax was an excellent well-trained upright young man I had listened to him for years and I knew he knew what he was talking about when I went into my own time with them I did get sidetracked with the blood test but I did get good service from Erica she always answered my questions well she gave me good ideas about how to help myself even after I'm out of the program so yes it's expensive but so is anything worth your time

From the very beginning I felt supported. Once on the website I knew that if I applied what I read my healing would begin. I so appreciated all of the talks and tools in my portal. The recipes were so helpful and delicious. My practitioner is so helpful with product suggestions. I’m changing over our household to much healthier products. I’ve loved the calls! The Set Apart call is a sweet Christ centered connection as my faith in Christ and relying on Him for strength to change is #1 with me. Melissa with Root Cause Blood Sugar/Metabolism on Tuesday mornings has been so informative and very encouraging! Sian on Mindset has been incredibly supportive to make the changes needed. I’ve also learned so much about breathing techniques to help reduce my stress and to help in the midst from Amber Williams. I’ve loved the calls with Dr. Chris Motley! I’ve grown to appreciate the food I eat and it’s purpose in my life as not just a checklist to complete but a spiritual experience to be grateful to God for all and pray for it to be fully used by my body. My gratitude journal is almost full and I can’t wait to create another. I’ve heard your so calm from family and friends. lol, they’ve never said that before! I was always on. I’ve received some pushback from my spouse and friends about oh you can shear once in a while. Why would I? Oh, I’ve had a piece or two more of the best dark chocolate but I truly don’t want to go back. I’ve lost 12 pounds and had to look for clothes that fit me. I’m still about 20 pounds from my goal but my weight goal is low on the list. I want to continue to learn how to meet my cell level nutritional needs and help my organs work the best possible. I’m grateful for this opportunity to learn and grow and will always have it as my base. Many thanks! Chris Bures

Had a zoom meeting with Elias this morning…excellent job of explaining the program & its benefits. I have access to a local Chinese naturopathic doctor that I will consult with before moving forward & will most likely buy my supplements from Dr Axe’s website moving forward. Than you Elias!

Very disappointed in this organization. I have been trying to reach some to cancel since June 3 and all I get are emails. I made a mistake thinking this was something I wanted to do but now that I have had this kind of experience I would NEVER recommend to anyone I know. I have been emailing and calling and never speak to anyone. It makes me literally sick to know that I have been taken advantage of and wish I could speak with Dr. Axe personally so that he knows this lack of customer service is going on in an organization he is associated with. If he is already aware, I am heartbroken.

I am incredibly grateful for the guidance and support I have received from my coach, Sydney. From the very beginning, she took the time to understand my goals, lifestyle, and specific needs, creating a plan that was both realistic and effective.
Her knowledge, encouragement, and accountability have helped me make healthier choices and develop habits that I can maintain long-term. What I appreciate most is her genuine care and commitment to my success. She consistently provided motivation, answered my questions, and celebrated my progress along the way.
Thanks to her coaching, I feel more confident, energized, and informed about myself. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their health and wellness with the support of a dedicated and knowledgeable professional. Thank you Dr.Axe and your incredible team!

What made my experience great?
I felt safe, that I could trust these people.
I'm a 67 year old woman who had been declining in energy and hadn't slept normal for decades. I was taking supplements, eating healthy, taking walks but I knew something just wasn't right. I went to a doctor and was diagnosed with insulin resistance, high cholesterol and high blood pressure so I quit sugars and starches. My doctor wanted to put me on medication, which is their standard protocol, but I wasn't comfortable with that route.
I came across an ad on Instagram of Dr. Axe and I wanted to explore his way of healing. What I found in their philosophy was a fit for me.
What is the company doing well?
They have created a great support system that gently moves me through my healing journey. I have a personal nutritionist who I LOVE chatting with. She's helped me to remain calm, and is so encouraging.
The supplements that Health Institute recommends, and is included in the program, are the best I've ever experienced.
The Institute has many ways to teach and support your needs and I was free to pick the ones that were best suited for me and my lifestyle. Absolutely no pressure!
As this part of my health journey is coming to a close
my energy has increased tremendously, I sleep 100 percent better (basically a miracle to me), my blood pressure is normal, my digestion is healing (no more stomachaches at night), and I'm regular for the most part.
I am a very happy customer!
I'll continue with what I've been taught and I can go back to some instructions on my computer and the ones I printed out. I will definitely continue with my recommend supplements, but most of all, I will miss my nutritionist coach, Sandy.
I feel prepared and confident of moving forward with what I've learned.
Hope this encourages you that people can get healthy no matter what age you are.

When I think of my experience through the Health Institute the word advocate comes to mind. Not only do I feel better equipped to know how to advocate for my own health needs, it has been so strengthening to have my personal nutritional practitioner advocating with me on my behalf. Nicola's tending and care with attuned ears and an informed mind has felt securing. It's nice to know I'm not in it alone and there are others in the health journey with me!

My personal coach was amazing and I am beyond thankful to have gotten her! She was great at meeting me where I was at, and was a wonderful support for me throughout the program. She was always encouraging and provided me with the information I was in search of.
Initially what drew me in, and what I found to be most beneficial, was that that program and supplements are tailored to your specific health needs. Although I really appreciated that aspect, it also pains me to say I don’t agree with how much the program itself costs — especially for someone who’s already done a lot of their own research. I really wanted to see this as an investment in my health, but now that I’m at the end of the program I’m still having a hard time justifying the cost of it all.

Reply from The Health Institute With Dr. Josh Axe
I am a bit disappointed in the program. At first, the price was appealing, but I didn't get the bang for my buck. The protocol ended up being very generalized and not specific to me. I am toward the end of my program, and the results aren't gaged by empirical testing but by another questionnaire. For me the money hasn't matched the value.

Reply from The Health Institute With Dr. Josh Axe
My experience was made great because of the wonderful practicioner who I was fortunate to be connected with! Alexis was such a great and positive help to me through the entire program!
One thing I think would be more helpful is more detailed information on the supplements received during each Phase of the program! I have always been reluctant to ingest a product or supplement that I know very little about! Knowing the reasons ahead of time why each participant is encouraged to take all these supplements during each Phase would be very beneficial.
