this company is not to be trusted. They high-pressure you in to stuff and make it sound differently than what it really is. Then when you want to talk to him to cancel it cause you’ve already told the bank that you do not want to finance it they do not return your call. I returned the product proof of return and nothing has been ever done about it. I called constantly and no get no answer
Worst company ever

Going through THI was very helpful to me. The indepth blood work and the knowledgeable staff/nurses made figuring out what was wrong in my body so easy. On top of that they being ultra nice. Moving on from here I am going to do my best to keep with the program. Being in my mid 30's now it was well worth the money and time. I recently got my dad onto THI and noticed a difference in his attitude and health within a few weeks.

I changed my mind and tried calling and emailing within 1 minute of placing my order. And their process is no one can reach out to you until 3-5 days. So on day 5 I get an email that says the blood kit has already been mailed they can only refund 37 of my $120 that i spent! a total scam artist

Feeling so irritated that I just spent $30 to sit through an hour-long sales pitch. I've followed Dr. Axe for years and really enjoy his stuff, but I wish I had known his Cellular Health Analysis Zoom was nothing more than a push to get me to pay for a program that is way out of my price range.

All the information you need to get healthy is in this program. There is so much information on the internet, but who can you trust? Dr. Axe. And the people he hires.
He is obviously careful about the people who work with him to counsel and teach his clients. Thank you to my practitioner Stephanie!!

My experience was very helpful towards my health journey having the support of a practitioner to guide and suggest what your possibilities are for any given question, or direct you to protocols that are tried and true because you don’t remember all the material that is being provided . Their encouragement helps carry you as well. They realize for many of us that it will be baby steps at first but keep doing things until it’s a habit. You will feel the better results in your life. There is a lot of material to take in so if you don’t understand or have questions you have access to them as well. I recommend this program. I’ve learned things that I never knew and it can be simple and effective to change your health for the better.

The program worked for me. I listened and then I made sure to implement all that I had learned. This is my new lifestyle! The only issue I have is the dangers of implementing yoga into your life. Jesus made it very clear not to take on the things that the Pagens partook in, such as idol worship. Yoga is not of God it is of the god of this world who is satan. I encourage anyone to Research with Jesus, He will make it very clear what He thinks about yoga and/or Christian yoga. I would vet Mountain Rose Herbs. I ordered a product from this company and when my ordered arrived I found in the box a brochure to a witchcraft school using herbs. Wiccan witches use herbs this way. I deal with wiccans all the time in my ministry. I was disturbed that their log of a bat was printed all over their box and brochure. I am sure this company utilizes herbal witchcraft into their products with spells of health or curses if you do not like their products. I find it disturbing from the Health Institute to promote yoga which belongs to satan as he controls it and promoting a company that is of a wiccan witchcraft nature. You asked me to be honest. I would be willing to personally talk with Dr. Axe anytime of my knowledge of the demonic realm and God's heavenly realm. Other than that, the program was excellent.

I have experienced a deep healing in several areas that were a huge problem to me before I began this healing journey. For years I struggled with constipation and had to take tons of stuff in order to have any semblance of regularity. But now, after being on the program for these four months, I don’t have to take anything other than fiber and I am as regular as clockwork! Also my sleep has improved greatly. I used to wake up more often than not at 2:30 AM with blood sugar dropping and cortisol spiking. Now most nights I sleep well. I’m still healing in that area. But I expect to continue healing even after I graduate from the program. That is because i learned how to eat in such a way as to bring about health and healing, and i plan to make it a lifelong commitment! And the program isn’t just about what we eat, but how eat and how we think and how we approach life. It’s a total wellness program for body, mind and soul. This has been a much needed turning point for the better in my life. I’m happy I chose to enter the program and make the commitment to do the work and make the changes!

I have been searching for a comprehensive health program for years. I have spent thousands on supplements and read article after article on diets that would address my specific needs for healthy living. I have been using some of Dr. Axe's supplements for about a year and subscribed to his email's. After hearing about The Health Institute's approach to a program targeting cellular health, I was convinced that it would address my specific needs. I signed up and after working with my health coach, Marta, for the past few months, and following the protocol, I am experiencing major improvements in my overall health and outlook for my future.

I am thrilled with my success in the program. After taking the supplements and following the dietary recommendations, my health issues have improved by 90 percent. While I think the cost is a bit steep, I am incredibly grateful for the help this program has provided. Having a physical book would have been helpful. The nurse practitioner assigned to me was both pleasant, helpful and supportive. Finally, I think it would be beneficial to repeat the bloodwork at the end of the four months to track my progression.

First off I have to start with my coach, Sandy Eggers. She was excellent! Knowledgable, encouraging, motivating but not pushy, relatable, positive infectious vibe, kind, easy to talk to, and Jesus loving! My wife and I did this together, she had a different coach and she really liked Sandy’s approach as well! Thank you soooo much Sandy!
My experience was insane good! I’m 52, my wife and I have three kids still at home, I have a pretty stressful and at times a time consuming job. Between all that I thought I was going to struggle with this program, but I did not. It was not hard for either my wife or I, we actually started to love if after the first week or so!
At the end of last winter I weighed 209 pounds, which was the most I have ever weighed…. I had way less energy than usual, body ached, I had poor sleep, high stress and all sorts of no goods…. When my wife and I started the program we really followed our coaches guidance, and my health started to improve immediately, my wife took a bit longer to start to see results but they definitely came, just not quite as fast as mine.
I went from 209 pounds to 191, in 2-3 months, all while gaining the energy to work out again, and looking forward to working out. While losing that weight, I was also gaining some muscle back, so this program really pushed that launch button for me!
I’ve gained tons of energy compared to before the program. So I’m playing with my kids even more than I was, I’m knocking out house projects, killing it at work, really gained more pep in my step!
I’m sleeping way better!
My joints are not near as sore, I’m not so stiff and painful in the morning, my knees do not ache near as bad as they did, and my back isn’t as tight and uncomfortable as it had been!
I’m a respiratory therapist that used to take two inhalers. I have not used them for about two months! The inflammation I had has lessened so much that not only do I look way better, I am legit healthier and feel way better!
At the right angle and if the lighting is just so, I have a six pack! I jest, but it’s really there, at 52. I now exercise 2-4 days a week at home and look forward to it again!
The protein intake, cutting most carbs and sugars, incorporating more olive oil, taking the supplements from the program through the phases, listening to my coach Sandy, has all help me make major health and life improvements!
So happy I was sitting through my wife’s first session when she got her blood work back as it motivated me to see what my markers looked like and start this program.
I’d do it again and recommend for those struggling with health due to life and lack of energy.
Hooyah! Thank you Sandy and The Health Institute for making it easier to change to a sustainable, healthier lifestyle!

My experience in this program was positive for developmental growth in addressing my exact health needs. You can’t get any better than that! It is a progressive implementation of supplements and nutritional ways to take out the problems, learn new habits and factual ways to be healthy, and learn how to maintain that position. Holly Peyer was my nutritional consultant; she was excellent! She made me comfortable with gains and failures. We concentrated on attainable goals and ways to work in that plan with success.
I never dreaded a zoom with her. She’s beautiful inside and out. I also commend Holly for sending me additional information to better my walk through the program. She is knowledgeable and will answer all questions.
The Health Institute is devoted to a well rounded approach reaching the areas of teaching, providing forms to use in shopping and planning meals, giving access to a community of others doing the program for support and ideas, weekly connections to Dr Axe, himself, and help and teaching in addressing stress, emotional, and mindset needs. That is what the program is doing well.
I hope any searching for a way to get control of their health and discover what may be the cause of poor health will participate in this program. ‘Hope you work with Holly!

Being on this food plan has made a world of difference for me. Having a practitioner, engaging and guiding health and care was pivotal to staying on the plan. I am thankful about the teaching and education that goes along with the plan and that there’s unlimited access to the plan as well. I intend to go back and review information to keep me on track to continue good food choices. It has completely rearranged my whole thinking about food.
How the plan has helped me is that bones are not as stiff and joints are moving better. My thyroid antibodies are decreasing and I physically feel like doing more and being active. I did have a snafu that I ended up with acute parasitic colitis in the midst of this just after starting the plan. it sent me a little off-balance, but I still continued to follow the plan in the midst of all phases despite the miserable gut issues I was facing. I was very thankful that I could forge through with learning, healthy, eating habits and losing weight in the process. I can tell you losing weight and my clothes feeling loose feels great, but not as great as not having achy joints and more flexibility.
I am thankful for Erica Burns, my practitioner and her diligent education and rationales to help me stay focused on the plan. I appreciate her pragmatic approach and her nonjudgmental assistance. It is great to have access to this support to help guide with managing the program and make good choices
The education videos from Dr Axe and Dr. Cole were great for giving the “whys” and not just follow the plan without any justifications. I appreciate that thoughtfulness.
I think everyone who endeavors this plan will probably wade in a different way, but remember to keep on going in and working the plan for the betterment of your health. Use the recipes, come up with your own that fit within the context of the food plan. You may be surprised about how good it will taste. I don’t think you will regret it.

Dr Axe and the Health Institute have truly changed my life and helped me get my health back in ways I never thought possible. While I know this is still a continued journey and there is always more work to do, my quality of life and my way of living are so much better than they were before. I began this journey this past May with level 4 lipedema. Thanks to Dr. Axe and his team at The Health Institute I have gained a better understanding of my health, learned how to make better choices, and most importantly, I feel like I am taking my life and my health back. Marta, my coach, has been an incredible part of this journey. Her encouragement, knowledge, patience, and constant support have helped me stay motivated and keep moving forward, even when things have been challenging. I am so grateful to the Health Institute and especially to Marta for believing in me, supporting me, and helping me find a healthier, better way of life. I have lost weight and significant inches of inflammation. If you are hesitant don’t be about joining this team. You will have so much support throughout your journey this will be your last choice to make for help for your health. You’ll join me in being glad you chose Dr Axe and his wonderful team! Do it for yourself because you are worth it!! Best wishes!

The health institute is committed to helping individuals improve their overall health through practical and sustainable lifestyle changes and choices. They are good at providing educational tools and resources and giving individual support, guidance and encouragement. My experience was good. I personally did not have any serious health issues. But I was experiencing daily fatigue and muscle pain that prevented me from staying as consistently active as I desired. The program was successful in helping me reach my goals of increased energy and endurance, better sleep and a healthier lifestyle routine.

The one on one was very good. The products were quality and i could feel a difference in my energy levels, my clarity of mind, my digestive system was operating at regularity level which was unusual for me

I learned so much about clean eating. I received support by Erica Burns. She was encouraging and gave me ideas Evan beyond the program information. I was supported through the material and although I never lost one pound which is frustrating, I had many wins in my digestion, my sleep, my skin rashes left and my sleep improved. Over all I am happy I went on this journey and hope to continue to here to the program and get the two months free extended care, and perhaps beyond. It was a big investment, which is rare for me to do for myself, and living on a fixed income, but I am prayerful and hopeful that in time it will pay dividends in my healthy cellular renewal, life moving forward.

Please read all the negative ratings before submitting any trust or dollars. I sent for kit after paying $97 - got kit on Friday - says to fast and use right away - I could not get support on weekend or website and could not lancet or use kit so did not use or send. Requested refund after failed attempts to use. Will only refund $37 consultation fee. Warning: this is run by Chiropractor, not MD! A third party sends the kit and even if you do not send in for processing, they refuse refund. Guess I am grateful that this so-called Christian, Dr. Axe on TBN and Health Institute refused my request for refund of processing fee unused so I am out $60. Others, from reviews, were out thousands. I got my own extensive bloodwork at MyQuest and JasonHealth.com with “tubes” of blood and professional lab and report instead of pin prick. Be careful - this company is one if many preying on people for money - it is a ruthless business.

I personally didn’t find it helpful for the $8000 paid since I was already a healthy consumer, doing my shakes, greens and organic fruits. There was no personal attention to the individual medical issues. It was about eating healthy and a number of supplements at each phase. Monthly you had a 1:1 with coach, all nice folks but again no attention to my specific issue. I even asked if anyone had the autoimmune disease to which I was v diagnosed and no response from NP. There was also a blood test at the beginning but no blood test at the end to evaluate the effectiveness of the program. Yet they did a qualitative evaluation with questions both at the beginning and the end of program. A quantitative test (blood work) speaks far more to the client progress as opposed to a quantitative ( subjective questions) at beginning and end.
I certainly would NOT recommend the program.
For people looking for weight loss and have poor eating habits I can see how this helps but definitely not for $8000.
There wasn’t even an opportunity to have at least one in one with Dr Axe, just group zoom calls with NP were answering most of the questions.
