The people is what makes this great
The people is what makes this great! The nurse practitioner I meet with (Linda) monthly is fabulous. Enjoy the zoom calls when I can pop in. The information builds in the sessions so it’s not overwhelming. An emphasis on progress over perfection.

Excited and hopeful for a healthy body
Im on week 3 of phase 1 and I have lost 6 lbs. these are pounds I could not get to budge. my sugar cravings are gone and my energy level is up, I still have some days where I get tired in the afternoon but it is improving. I am not bloated....which I love the most. I am so excited for this journey and hopeful that my health will be restored and I will be able to do all things I love to do well into my 70's and beyond.

One Day At A Time…
Since being in this program I have taken each day in stride. Taking the supplements and making my mind up to eat well with each meal. The biggest change is my heartburn at night is completely gone. Then my afternoon tiredness began to ease off.
Then cravings for sweets just went away. Treating myself to a small ice-cream once in a while didn’t throw me off. I focused on the changes a little at a time. Feeling better and loosing 9 lbs. so far is a result of a “one day at a time” mentality. Focusing on our health is necessary so we can keep enjoying the blessings of each day we are given.

Extremely Overpriced Nutritional Program
What I was expecting was as advertised below.
Decode your health
with one simple test
Most blood tests give you numbers. We give you answers. Our Cellular Bloodwork Panel looks beyond standard biomarkers to reveal how your cellular health is functioning—but the real value isn’t the data, it’s the review. In a private session, a Senior Health Advisor trained in Dr. Axe’s cellular healing approach helps you understand what your cells are signaling and how cellular healing can address symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, weight resistance, or hormone imbalance.
What I got was a person who did not have proper knowledge to go over blood work. I got a person trained in pitching the program.
They also gave some unrealistic numbers for value.
No answers were given to fix my health on the first call other than to tell me to join the program. Not sure how this is worth $145.00.
Test from home saved me gas money to my doctor’s not sure where $125.00 savings came from.
My story didn’t come first but I did fall for the sales pitch as I was a fan of Dr. Axe from his podcasts. Not sure how this is worth $97.
Email I sent after second bloodwork was never evaluated.
Delayed again with no explanation. I paid over 8000 for a target approach to health based on my blood test. No one can give an answer and this kit had been delayed almost 2 months. This is brining up bad blooded as I had an issue early on and in early December your customer service replied they would reach out within 48 hours and no one reached out.
Sent from my iPhone
Reply I received
I’m following up from the voicemail I left today. My name is Amber and ’m a Team Lead here at THI and wanted to personally connect with you.
I want to sincerely apologize for the confusion and frustration regarding your Siphox kit. I completely understand how upsetting the delays and mixed messages have been.
After reviewing your account, it appears that you had already completed your bloodwork prior to signing up for the CHR program. Despite this, a second kit was accidentally sent at sign-up, and that kit was rejected due to an insufficient blood sample, which understandably caused frustration while waiting for a replacement.
To clarify, because you had already completed your bloodwork, the replacement kit isn’t necessary as we already have results, but it’s available for you to use whenever it’s most helpful for reviewing your progress. The replacement kit you’ll be receiving now can be used at the end of your CHR program at no extra cost or while you are in your 2 free months of concierge after graduating CHR.
I also want to clarify regarding the screenshot you shared from the program sign-up page. While it may seem like repeated bloodwork is required, the bloodwork is just one piece of the overall program. It provides insights to guide discussions with your practitioner Sydney, but the program itself is not based solely on bloodwork, and participants do not need to retest multiple times.
Another misleading fact is stated below. They stated It is not a one size fits all. True they put you in one of their 3 programs they have so it is not personalized as stated. Most people suffering have more than one issue to resolve.
Nothing in this program is proprietary. You do not talk to any doctors. There is no direct line you can call anyone on. It seems like you get a lot with the calls but there is nothing in this program you can't find on you tube. Is organizing this info worth $8000? The meals are good, but would you pay $8000 for a cookbook?
The program all boils down to these points: don't eat pork, dairy, sugar, or gluten. Get plenty of sleep, practice gratitude, don't eat raw, get plenty of water and don't drink or eat anything cold.
They supply the supplements for the program, but it is from their supplement companies,
You do get a couple of calls from a nutritional adviser and a facebook group to get advise from
After researching this subject, you can get a nutritional advisor or even a Natural HealthCare doctor for cheaper than $8000.
Also I had issues with the loan agency they use, ClarityPay. I sent an email to claritypay and Health Institute customer service to cancel my loan within 3 days a no one could get me a copy of the paperwork I signed. I didn't have enough money to hire a lawyer so I went through the program.

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.
We understand your concerns around the bloodwork process, communication, program expectations, and overall investment. We also recognize that there were points in your experience that caused frustration, and we appreciate the opportunity to review and address those concerns.
We do want to clarify a few points about the program for anyone reading this review. The Health Institute's programs are designed to provide more than a nutrition plan or supplement recommendations. Participants receive educational resources, live educational sessions and Q&As, community support, and access to a structured framework that addresses nutrition, lifestyle, and other areas of wellness. Participants also work one-on-one with an assigned practitioner who takes the time to understand their individual concerns, goals, and needs and provides personalized guidance throughout the program. While participants are enrolled in a specific program based on their needs and goals, the guidance and support within that program are personalized to the individual.
We also understand that the investment will not feel worthwhile to everyone, and we respect that perspective. Our goal is to provide participants with education, support, and practical tools they can continue using throughout their health journey.
Because your review includes concerns specific to your account and experience, we don't want to discuss those details publicly. If there are still unresolved questions or concerns, please contact our support team at support@thehealthinstitute.com or 877-295-8339 ext. 1004, and we'd be happy to continue the conversation.
Thank you again for sharing your feedback. We take it seriously and will continue looking for ways to improve communication and the overall student experience.

The depth and breadth of information
The experience was made by the information supplied online specifically for me as it regarded diet and nutrition. That was the biggest plus for me. My counselor provided excellent guidance and was quite prompt at answering any of my questions. I found the videos helpful and interesting. If anything, there was SO much information, sometimes it seemed overwhelming to keep track on best practices. But, I don't say that as a negative. It does show how much you can get from investing in your health in this manner. Also, a huge plus for providing motivation and spiritual guidance.

Success with Dr Axe's Health Program
I have been following Dr. Axe's health plan for three months. I don't do everything perfectly because of my crazy work schedule, but I do try to stick with the basic diet rules and take my supplements regularly. My health issues mostly have disappeared, I've lost 12 lbs and feel great!.
In the past, I tried several other diet and exercise programs, but nothing worked long term.
I really like that Dr. Axe shares the science behind our personalized diet, this helps me to understand the "why" I'm eating in this new somewhat strange way (for me), so that encourages me to continue, Also having a " practitioner " to guide me along the way was very helpful and encouraging.
The only drawback I see, is the cost. I believe it is a little steep for only 4 months.
I encourage everyone to figure out how to fit "your plan" into your lifestyle and stick to it. The benefits are worth it!

About 6 months ago I was tired
About 6 months ago I was tired, unmotivated, and not feeling like myself. I decided to choose me. To eat better, move more, sleep more, and speak kinder to myself. It wasn't easy.
There were setbacks, cravings, and tears.
But every small choice added up. I'm not where I want to be yet, but I'm so much healthier, happier, and stronger than I was
- mentally and physically. And I'm so proud of that.
Starting this program has been the best decision I’ve made.

It works if you work it!
I must say I did not follow protocol most of the last few weeks but I will say bc of the supplements and the things I did follow correctly for the first few months, I stopped having gas. My digestive issues started to correct themselves and I felt the best I've felt in a long time, also I had candida that was turning my toenails with white or dark and then falling off and now they are completely normal and look amazing. This plan works if you work it. When I started eating badly or are something I shouldn't I could tell. I trust this program and believe in it more than myself making decisions for myself.

Feeling Healthy Again!
I am in Phase 3 of this program and I have to say that I'm feeling great! I was just spinning my wheels with my weight and not sleeping. I couldn't handle bright lights, loud noises and socializing; I just felt a sick anxiety that I can't even describe. And I lived with heartburn and poor digestion. As of now, I am down 10 pounds and I can function normally again. I can eat all the protein and vegetables without feeling sick and my glucose, which was high, is leveling out. Over all, I can recommend this program to anyone!
