Protein Sparing Pho
Have you ever tried Pho?
My son Kai and I were watching MasterChef and someone made Pho. Kai was drooling and said we must make a recipe for it!
So I happily jumped into the kitchen for the challenge!
One question Craig and I get almost daily is, “How do I eat more protein without adding fat?”
Craig made this chart for everyone to help make eating PSMF easier for all of you! Or you can just search “PSMF” and you will find many recipes to try!
HOW TO MAKE PROTEIN SPARING PHO
To make my protein noodles for my protein sparing Pho, I used Further Food gelatin!
I highly suggest ordering a lot of Further Food gelatin because these protein sparing noodles will BLOW YOUR MIND!
I always stock my pantry with Further Food gelatin and collagen! They have so many different flavors of collagen that really make my recipes extra delicious! I know it looks crazy, but I seriously use Further Food in most of my recipes!

SAUNA BENEFITS
Sauna blankets have many potential benefits, including:
Detoxification: Sweating induced by the blanket helps eliminate toxins and impurities from the body.
Improved Circulation: The heat produced by the blanket can promote better blood flow and circulation. This helps with the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to various parts of the body.
Relaxation: The heat from the blanket can promote relaxation and reduce stress.
Weight loss: Sweating can help burn calories, potentially aiding in weight loss efforts.
Pain relief: The infrared heat can help ease muscle soreness and joint pain.
Skin health: The blanket can improve the appearance of the skin by promoting circulation and reducing inflammation.
Improved sleep: Relaxation induced by the blanket may lead to better sleep quality.
WHERE TO GET A SAUNA BLANKET
Once we found out Craig had Lyme Disease, we needed to take action! He went undiagnosed for 5 years and he was suffering terribly!
I personally didn’t want to get a sauna, but Craig convinced me it would help him and he showed me all the research on why I should be doing it too!
We 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!

Protein Sparing Salted Caramel Ice Cream
I LOVE ice cream! Who doesn’t?
My husband son LOVES ice cream and he loves caramel! So when Equip created a salted caramel protein powder, I knew I had to make a special recipe for him!
To make my delicious ice cream, I used Equip salted caramel protein powder that is made from beef!
What a great way to add protein and nutrition to a low calorie dessert!
Adding Equip creates a soft and creamy texture to this protein packed ice cream so do not skip this step. Too often low calorie ice creams are icy and not creamy like a high fat version.
Skip going to Amazon to order Equip and support small business! You also get to save if you go through their website when you use code MARIA!

“I’ve been trying to lose weight for over 20 years since when my Menieres was misdiagnosed and I was put on prednisone. I’ve always struggled with 20-30 lbs and have always been able to lose when I put my mind to it when I was younger but prednisone ballooned me up to gain over 100 lbs that I just couldn’t shed… until now!
In the past, I’ve done fasting as well as high fat keto but I wasn’t losing weight.
I decided to do Maria’s January carnivore challenge. I also purchased the platinum membership and had Craig calculate my macros…my own calculation was WAY off.
As I got into the swing of the challenge, listening and learning, a light bulb finally clicked and it made so much sense that by eating too much fat I wasn’t burning the fat I was carrying.
To my surprise I lost 21.8 lbs during the January challenge which motivated me to continue but adding in a few things during February. I continued to lose weight at a healthy rate.
In March I decided to do the Keto/PSMF challenge to really get a better understanding of and a better handle on macros as well as for the group support. Best thing I ever did as I continue to lose weight at what I feel is a sustainable and healthy rate. I’m down 60 lbs since January (80 since June of 2022) and have finally moved out of the dreaded Obesity classification.
For anyone struggling, please keep at it!!! I’d go weeks with no change, nearing frustration and then all of a sudden drop a lb or two. I know my body was adjusting and some days were challenging but I stuck with it. A lot of non-scale victories…inflammation numbers way down and now realize that much of these past 6 months has been about healing even though I initially thought only the first couple months were my body healing.
I am so grateful to Maria & Craig for their programs, research, and dedication to helping others! I’m a pretty good cook/baker but the recipes that I’ve discovered these past 6 months are phenomenal and a definite game changer for my continued success!” – Jan

Hawaiian Carnivore Fried “Rice”
While we were in Hawaii, I was inspired to write a recipe for Hawaiian Fried “Rice” and I also wanted to make it protein sparing and carnivore for all of you!
There is no rice or cauliflower rice in this recipe!
To be totally honest, I never liked nor ate cauliflower rice. It always made the house stink and it gave me gas. I have been eating zero-carb for many years. My body does best with zero carbs. So instead of cauliflower rice, I use egg whites to whisk into rice! It is so much more flavorful than white rice!
To make my carnivore fried rice, I used Further Food gelatin!
Gelatin helps make the carnivore rice firm into a delicious bite of goodness!
I love Further Food gelatin and now you can get a HUGE bag so you can make my carnivore fried rice, carnivore noodles and carnivore bread all the time!
Further Food is SO generous that they are doing a special discount for all of my readers!Use code: MARIAMINDBODY for 20 % off!Click HERE to get Further Food Products!

Dairy Free Carnivore Pizza
Are you a pizza lover but the dairy doesn’t love you? I needed to cut out dairy for quite some time until I got to my goal weight and heal my gut issues. But I still wanted a pizza!
If you are like me and still want pizza but without the carbs and dairy, you must try this Dairy Free Carnivore Pizza!
[image error]WHERE TO GET INGREDIENTS FOR DAIRY FREE CARNIVORE PIZZAIf 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!!!VIDEO MAKING DAIRY FREE CARNIVORE PIZZAIf you want to watch us make this delicious Dairy Free Pizza, subscribe to our new YouTube Channel to get updated when the video comes out which will be in a day or two, and comment below on what video recipe we should make next!

“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

Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask
Now that I am in my 40’s I am always on the pursuit of natural anti-aging products.
In the quest for achieving healthy and youthful-looking skin, we often explore various beauty treatments and products. Among the innovative breakthroughs in skincare, red light face masks have gained significant popularity in recent years. These devices utilize specific wavelengths of red light to deliver a range of benefits that can transform your complexion. There are numerous advantages of red light face masks and why they have become an essential tool in my pursuit of radiant, rejuvenated skin.
I use my Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask daily! I love that red light therapy is a natural way to help improve my skin!
Red light helps with collagen production, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, helps eliminate acne, and it accelerates wound healing. Unlike invasive cosmetic procedures or harsh chemical treatments, red light face masks offer a non-invasive, gentle approach to skincare. Red light masks do not require any downtime or recovery period, making them suitable for all skin types. I love that I can use my red light mask daily without having down time like most cosmetic procedures. Incorporating red light therapy into your skincare routine can help you achieve a radiant, youthful complexion and boost your confidence.
-Wrinkles and Fine Lines
-Sore Jaw
-Eczema
-Migraines
-Acne
-Scar Tissue
-Wound Healing
-Relaxation
-Razor Burns
-Ingrown Hairs
I’ve tried other red light face masks in the past, but they were all hard plastic, bulky, and did not fit well. I had an idea for a softer, more comfortable mask so I emailed my friend Andy who owns Bon Charge that I wish he offered a soft red light mask. I know he is always on the pursuit of health so I figured he would be interested in such a product.
Within months, he created the best red light mask and I use mine daily!
Andy is so generous, he is offering the LARGEST discount to my readers!
