The BEST Pure Protein Noodles
I took a group of people to Greece this past September for a keto trip of a lifetime! I always make friends for life with the people who come on my adventures around the World and 2 of my new friends are Vito and Aubrey!
Vito and Aubrey are from Toronto Canada and they own a successful restaurant. Vito is quite the chef and I learned a lot from him when we were in Greece.
Oh and YOU should join me on my next adventure to Italy this June! I also have a trip this September to Croatia! Click HERE to learn more!
WHERE THE RECIPE FOR PURE PROTEIN NOODLES CAME FROMThey recently visited us in Maui and they cooked for us at the Keto Condo! Vito made us the BEST pure protein noodles with a truffle cream sauce! He also made garlic shrimp to go with the dish since he knew I loved shrimp (I ate Shrimp Sakanaki in Greece just about every single day!).
I never made pure protein noodles like this before! They are made from water, gelatin and egg white powder. They told me they adapted Indigo Nili’s recipe and it is an absolute hit! Even Kai ate the leftovers the next day and said it was even better leftover!
HOW TO MAKE PURE PROTEIN NOODLESTo make my Protein Sparing Noodles, I used Further Food Gelatin! Adding gelatin to my protein sparing noodles adds a delicious chewy texture!
Further Food gelatin and collagen peptides are both excellent sources of collagen. Both their Collagen & Gelatin are sourced from the highest quality, grass-fed, pasture-raised, hormone-free, and antibiotic free bovine collagen.
The benefits of collagen and gelatin are astounding! Just eating my delicious Protein Sparing Noodles helps support skin elasticity & hydration, longer hair & nails, stronger bones & joints, faster recovery between workouts, increased flexibility, improved digestion, and it even keeps you feeling full and satiated for longer!
Further Food Collagen Peptides dissolve instantly in any recipe, and Gelatin Powder naturally thickens recipes. It’s perfect for making the BEST pure protein noodles, dairy free ice cream, jello, sugar free gummies, no bake cheesecake, or panna cotta!

“Hopefully this will provide some inspiration for people that are on the fence about Emmerich Keto. In the before pictures, my husband was pre-diabetic and was also on blood pressure medication. His knees hurt to the point that he went to the doctor to find out what he could do about it. And me, on the other hand, I was a walking bag of inflammation and so uncomfortable in my own skin. By the end of each day, my feet were swollen beyond recognition and it hurt to walk. I was also on two different blood pressure meds. Now, a few years into this lifestyle, we are both OFF ALL medications, our joints are pain free and it no longer hurts me to walk! Do we get off track sometimes? Oh yes! But, we have the tools provided by Maria Emmerich and Craig Emmerich to get back on. Being a new year, I decided to take my measurements and really track my macros for awhile, also incorporating some PSMF days. In ONLY 6 days, I’ve lost 7 pounds. I’m not sure of my total weight lost from the beginning because I didn’t dare weigh myself for the first little while, but 30 that I know of. My husband has lost ~65 pounds. If we can do this, anyone can!!!” – Janna

Protein Sparing Irish Cream
St. Patrick’s Day is coming and you all know I love to make the holidays fun for my boys!
This year my son Kai wanted to try Irish Cream so right away I jumped into the kitchen and made the most delicious keto Irish Cream (which was with heavy cream) but then I thought, why not make a lighter version for a protein sparing Irish Cream?
Both the keto Irish Cream and my protein sparing Irish Cream was an absolute hit, I had to share these recipes with you!
HOW TO MAKE PROTEIN SPARING IRISH CREAMTo make my protein sparing Irish Cream, I used peanut butter Equip Prime Protein powder!
The best product I found last year was Equip Prime Protein and it is helping me reach my protein macro daily!
I love making recipes with it like my protein sparing Irish Cream. I used the vanilla and chocolate Equip. Prime Protein powder is an all-natural, comes from 100% grass-fed beef protein powder and is sweetened with stevia. There are no fillers, no additives, no chemicals and it is so delicious!

“Hi Maria,
I wanted to tell you that with your help, I’m OFF all my medications! My ankylosing spondylitis (AS) was ruining my life. I lived in chronic pain.
At my last doctors appointment, my tests show that I’m in remission. My doctor asked what I was doing because she has NEVER had a patient get off medication and heal like I have! I told her, I do everything Maria Emmerich tells me to do. She’s looking you up!
The modified keto plan and supplements you have me on have changed my life! I’m finally living again! You are a magician!” Jen

Sick of Winter? Try Sauna
Winter can be long and dark. Sometimes you need something to help lift your moods during the long dark days. Many of you know I am in love with my new sauna blanket and it helps get through winter in many ways!
1. It is great for your skin!I always notice my skin gets so dry in the cold Wisconsin winters! My feet are dry, my face is dry, my lips are dry, my hair needs extra conditioner. Winter dries up our bodies and leaves our skin dry and vulnerable because of the unstable humidity in the air.
If you spend a few minutes in the sauna, your skin will thank you. Sauna reconstructs the skin and helps moisturize it to bring back the glow you miss.
2. Helps your immune system!Doing regular saunas improves your blood circulation.
to keep you more alert, think about it this way, experts have uncovered a serious relationship between frequent sauna visits and increased immune system. This also includes excellent conditions of the major body organs. There wouldn’t be a better way to keep off sicknesses and maintain excellent health than this.
3. Gets rid of the Winter Chill!You all know those days where it is so cold, it is almost impossible to warm up! I love my sauna on those days where the heat reaches deep into your muscles! It is the best feeling on those bitter cold mornings!
4. A Mini Mind VacationA long chilly winter day gets most of us anxious and edgy. Take a mini vacation to the sauna to help your mind unwind and your body rejuvenate!
Especially if you roll in the snow after the sauna (which I loved doing in high school with friends), the hot and cold therapy will give you a huge dose of endorphins to boost your mood!
In the sauna blanket, close your eyes and visualize your body filling up with energy!
5. Increase Deep SleepMost of my clients complain of poor sleep. Often times they can fall asleep but they have a hard time staying asleep. Repeated nights of poor sleep means your body got tired and exhausted over time, elevated blood sugars which leave you extra hungry after a poor night of sleep and difficulty losing weight.
Taking time in a sauna in the morning, helps boosts your cell activity and brings you a deep good night sleep!
WHERE TO GET A SAUNA BLANKETWe do not have a lot of space at our Keto Condo in Maui so a sauna blanket was perfect for getting all the benefits without taking up space!
What I love about Bon Charge is their constant searching for creating products that really can enhance our health and wellness! BON CHARGE products help you naturally address the issues of our modern-day way of life effortlessly and with maximum impact.

Zero Carb Mozzarella Sticks
If you haven’t noticed, I do not allow advertising on my site.
I just didn’t agree with some of the products that were advertised. They were keto products, but they were unhealthy and I would never personally eat most of the products. It was hard to say no to blog advertisements; they pay thousands of dollars a month, but I just felt uncomfortable about having the products I didn’t recommend on my website.
Instead, I have created a shopping list where you can find all the healthy ingredients that are difficult to find in the grocery store (and if you do find them, they are often very expensive).
I have done a lot of detective work and found the lowest prices on for all of the products I use and love. Everything from food, pantry items, kitchen tools, supplements, and skin products are on my list.
I rarely waste time in the grocery store because I find everything online for a way better price!
All you have to do is click on the words in my recipes and it will take you right to the correct item. If you add them to your cart I get a tiny commission that helps me afford to keep practicing recipes (Recipe experimenting can costing me a fortune!…but I love helping!).
I also have GREAT HOLIDAY GIFT IDEAS on the list!
You can get my full shipping list HERE.Happy Shopping and THANK YOU for all your support!!!

“Hi Maria and Craig,
I just wanted to update you on our success! I am the one that asked if you would add two seats so I could bring my daughter to your PSMF class at your home.
Jozie is 12 and has Turners Syndrome and weight issues and eating has been a struggle her entire life. Guess what?! She is successful and loves this way of eating! She is experiencing being full and I always said “she doesn’t have a full switch”!
Also, she is on shots daily for growth for her TS and hadn’t been growing well even with them. Well, during the last 44 days she grew an inch and she lost 10lbs!!
The supplements from your personal health assessment and your way of Keto has been nothing but amazing! We didn’t care about the weight loss but figured some would happen. Her self esteem, her confidence, and her success in committing to this lifestyle is just giving her so much! Thank you, thank you, thank you I have been doing it side by side with her so we could be a team and the benefits I am seeing are also nothing short of amazing. I have lost 17lbs and still going.
Most importantly for me I am hanging on to my gallbladder and seeing so many other health improvements! Like my allergies are even non-existent since I converted – who knew?!
Thank you for going out of your way to add two seats that day…you literally changed our lives in ways I can’t put all in to words.” – Linda

Valentine’s Day is coming!
Say what you will about Valentine’s Day, but I do love making it special. I get healthy gifts for all of my boys to make it special. It is a day for love and I like to show my boys how much I love them.
I love gifting the “Gift that Keeps Giving the All Year Long” as cousin Eddie would say! And a sauna blanket is the perfect gift to give to your loved one! Not only because every time they use it, they will think of your generosity, but you most likely will be able to use the sauna blanket and get the benefits too! It is really great for the whole family.
There are so many health benefits to saunas! This gift is a great way to jump start your health goals! Here are some of the great benefits you can get from saunas:
Relaxing. They are great for reducing stress. And have been shown to improve sleep too!Increase Blood FlowSoothe Aches and PainsRecover from Exercise. And alternating between sauna and then cold soak can be great for recovery and healing.Keep a Cool Head. Many people struggle to stay in a sauna long enough to get some of the great health benefits because their head will get too hot. But with a sauna blanket, your head stays cool making it easier for many people to stay in it longer.And to add to all these great benefits, a sauna blanket (versus a traditional sauna) adds these great conveniences:
Much More Affordable than traditional saunas (about 1/3 to 1/4 the price)Much Less Space (can be folded up and kept in a closet)Portable Too!WHERE TO GET A SAUNA BLANKETWe do not have a lot of space at our Keto Condo in Maui so a sauna blanket was perfect for getting all the benefits without taking up space!
