The 30-Day Ketogenic Cleanse: Reset Your Metabolism with 160 Tasty Whole-Food Recipes & a Guided Meal Plan

I just completed Maria’s 30 day ketogenic cleanse and IT’S THE BEST DECISION I EVER MADE! If you have been thinking of trying her cleanse, I urge you to start now! There is no time like the present. You will be so happy you started right when you did and will be a totally different, more improved version of yourself at the end! I am ecstatic to report I lost a total of 8.6 lbs and 6.5 total inches all around from my hips, waist, and thighs! I was not sure what results I would get but I am MORE THAN HAPPY with today’s overall results! I cannot wait to continue this way of eating, while adding in some PSMF days. Maria and Craig made it so easy to make this a sustainable lifestyle. All of the recipes are out of this world delicious. I now feel like a chef in my own fancy restaurant every day! Everyone that has tasted what I have made from either the 30 day ketogenic cleanse cookbook, Art of Fat Loss e book, dairy free cook book, or restaurant favorites cook book can not get over how delicious and satisfying the food is! For a little back story, my health and fitness journey began 25 years ago when I was 14 and recently diagnosed with endometriosis. When I look at photos of that unhappy and unhealthy teenager, I don’t even recognize myself anymore. I quickly realized at that moment, how important your health and body are! You must take care of it every day! I started changing my eating habits and working out. It didn’t take long for me to realize how much better I felt eating cleaner foods and exercising. My love for health and nutrition continued to grow over the years. I started to make goals for myself to keep me accountable and to work towards progress. It’s so rewarding to achieve your goals and set new ones. Fast forward to the past 3 years as a full time working mom of two daughters 4 and 6 – I have been stuck and stopped making progress. It was so frustrating to be putting in the effort and not getting any results. Even worse I had NO ENERGY and always felt run down no matter what! I drank about 5 large glasses of coffee a day as well and still felt run down! I can also say my mood was not in the best place either. I enrolled in a January 2021 reset program. Maria Emmerich was a speaker during a master class week. I instantly fell in love with her! She gave off the best energy and had so many amazing recipe ideas that I could not wait to try. I started watching her YouTube videos, ordered her 30 day ketogenic cleanse recipe book, and started trying out her recipes. It was not long before I had more energy and a better mood! (I even cut out coffee and still had more energy!) I could not wait to dive right in and follow the 30 day cleanse menu during the month of March! Following the cleanse forced me to try foods I would have never tried before. It’s only been 30 days but I have a lifetime to go. Maria has made such a huge impact on me and I am forever changed and grateful to her and Craig! I have added her restaurant favorites, and dairy free cookbooks to my assortment as well as her e books. My daughters love the art of healthy eating – kids e book. They tag their favorite recipes they want to make with me. If you are thinking of trying her 30 day cleanse, DO IT! You will feel amazing at the end of the 30 days! Just remember and remind yourself, its all the baby steps you take along your very own journey that will lead you to your best version of yourself. It’s not a race to get to the finish line. It truly is a lifestyle where you are constantly becoming a better, stronger, healthier version of yourself and there is no expiration date or date on the calendar that you must get there by! I am FOREVER grateful and THANKFUL for Maria Emmerich! She has forever changed my life for the better! I hope to go on one of her amazing trips that she offers and meet her in person and soak in all of the knowledge she knows. What’s best is the huge heart Maria has for helping others. It comes through in everything she does! What are you waiting for, go order that 20 day ketogenic cleanse and start your 30 days, I promise you will continue following the principles when you are done and will be more than thankful you started right when you did. You could even grab a friend or partner and do it together!

This Book is nothing short of fantastic. I have been following Maria for years. When I saw that she was coming out with a new book my first thought was... Do I really need it? Needless to say, I purchased it and I am sooooo glad that I did. I have had her book since it came out and have been able to cook up a few of her recipes. Not only are they quick and easy, but, they are absolutely delicious. I love that each of her recipes have a picture. The recipes are easy to follow with accessabile ingredients. What I don't find at my local grocery store or Whole Foods I'm able to find here on Amazon. She has daily menu's you can follow and the serving sizes can be easily raised or lowered. This book is so much more than a Cookbook. Maria goes into detail about exercise, nutrition, healing and the ketogenic lifestyle and why each of us should be following it. I have never felt better following a Ketogenic diet. I am 49 years old and have suffered from Hashimotos for years. This lifestyle has made a tremendous difference in how I feel about my self both physically and emotionally. Whether you are new to the Ketogenic Lifestyle or are a seasoned Ketonian, this book is AWESOME and needs to be part of your arsenal!!!!

My husband and I followed this cleanse when I was pregnant and 3 weeks due. The first day I was scared of being hungry, we both experienced the headaches, the flu type feelings during the first week. Towards the end of week 2, we were completely adapted to this way of eating and we felt great and feel good to this day. (I swear the cravings go away and you don't obsessively think about snacks. But getting over bread took me about a month). This book changed our lives. We have attempted to go grain free before but this really shifted our perspective and ambitions about our health. During the cleanse we did not eat out of order food. We always buy organic and grass-fed humane meat and we came to the conclusion that restaurants and ordering-in is just not for us (exceptions such as good sushi places or steakhouses where we know the provenance of the vegetables and protein). The recipes are better than I anticipated. This book is really a tour de force, you cannot expect it to please every palate and fit every person's expectations. If a recipe was too complicated or not inspiring, I would switch it with another or cut a few corners here and there always while respecting the basic rules. Our favorites were the ramen (I make my own pork belly in slow cooker with coco aminos, ginger and garlic), the beef rib and chorizo stew, the breads and the super easy "English muffin" such a life saver on busy days! This book also cleaned our pantry. I was not able to complete the cleanse fully because my baby was born (came sooner and delivered at the speed of lightning) and at the hospital I tried to follow keto but due to overwhelmed emotions, I cheated with cake and a sandwich! That is OK because this lifestyle is fully engrained in our lives now. Since the hospital, we reintegrated only nuts into our diet and butter. For those who are pregnant and wonder if they can do this diet and then breastfeed successfully I can testify that ABSOLUTELY. I felt amazing towards the end of my pregnancy because of this way of eating and I am melting my excess weight off SO FAST all the while breastfeeding no problem. One important advice for breastfeeding moms: DRINK LOTS OF WATER. No water = no milk. It's not so much what you eat as it is the proper amount of calories. I also take fenugreek supplements. I am not looking at being in ketosis right now, sometimes I eat an apple or a banana but 95% of the time I follow the diet in this book (with added nuts and butter) and I even do intermittent fasting. I am not the best reviewer out there, I could write a novel about this book and all its details. Today I received Maria's "Keto comfort foods" and I am SO EXCITED to try the recipes. Maria is putting out amazing books, lots of hard work goes into them these are truly quality books. I am super grateful to have found them, my husband and I feel great since we did the cleanse. Once my doctor clears me to start exercising again we will get keto strips and start to get really serious about ketosis. Until then, this has put us into great shape already. Thank you Maria! Keep up the good work! Sylwia

I started the cleanse August 15, 2017 with the 30 Day online program because I didn't know about the book. I was in agonizing pain from an adhesion with a nerve that was imbedded. After years of trying all sorts of therapies, my doctors decided that surgery was the only option. With a host of yucky diagnoses - like PCOS (with a hysterectomy), insulin resistance, SIBO, weight loss resistance - I was concerned about not healing from inflammation. So, all three doctors okayed my plan to eat Keto for inflammation. Fortunately, a friend had introduced me to Maria about 4 years ago so I knew who to look to for sound advice. Since August, I have lost 35 pounds and 10 pants sizes. (YES, a size 4 yesterday!) There have been so many unexpected surprises in my new WOE - perfect cholesterol, 4.6 A1C, 75 fasting glucose and all the yucky diagnoses codes are gone. My doctor is so pleased with my journey. I am still losing. I would like to lose about 6 or 7 more pounds to be healthy but with my Maria cookbook arsenal I get to eat yummy food, am not hungry, and the best of all, have discovered "FOOD IS NOT MY ENEMY." I actually enjoy eating again because I don't have to fear its revenge. So exciting to me, when I focused on being healthy first, the weight loss happened. But I can truly say, knowing that I have trusted well-researched voices in Craig and Maria has made this journey peaceful. I am a walking advertisement for Ketogenic Adapted and have an album on my phone to text the book's pictures on Amazon to everyone who asks. I even hosted a Keto tasting the other night for some newbies to sample for themselves the delicious recipes from the cleanse and, oh my goodness, the Dairy-Free book!!!! That one is equally delightful and I own almost of the books!!! I had a goal to Fit, Slim and Full of Vitality and I can truly say, for me, Living KetoAdapted has been the key I was looking for. (Vitality would be elusive if my food was boring or nasty. #beentheredonethat) And I am thankful for this community and the kindness to one another. Thank you ,Craig and Maria, for sharing your life with us and the hours you spend perfecting the recipes with all the cool tips and tastes. I thought I knew how to cook before I discovered your books. #longpostapology #peoplelikeyoumaketheworldabetterplace

I have been following Maria for a while, but never quite took the plunge into a keto lifestyle. Despite the consistent success a friend of mine has had with this program; I've been battling a lifetime of conditioning that fat is bad. Over the past 20 years I've followed multiple low-fat diets that have left me bouncing back up, again and again, higher and higher, than when I started. I began this cleanse in the hopes of kickstarting my metabolism, which has started to slow as I've aged. In less than three weeks, I'm already down 20 pounds. It's simple enough for someone with intermediate kitchen skills. My husband, who is very resistant to this lifestyle change because of years of being taught the standard American diet as a way for healthy living, has lost 15 pounds without fully following it. He is still having his nightly glass of wine, eating nuts whenever he feels like it, and put a teaspoon of sugar and a bit of milk in his coffee every morning. With a little planning, and open mind, and the willingness to try until you succeed, I believe this book and her other books, I own the layout for the framework of a healthy lifestyle. I plan to follow it from this day forward. This way of eating is sustainable, and I recommend it to anyone. The only reason I give it four stars instead of five is the initial time commitment. There are ways to decrease this time commitment, and I would love it if she would explain those in the book more clearly. Also the run of the publication is missing date 29 and day 30, so her publisher needs to run another batch of this book. I highly recommend you try this program.

LOVE this book! Yes, it's a bit more prep work than I usually like to do, especially during the week, but so far each recipe has paid off. It boggles my mind how Maria even came up with some of these ideas. Not only is everything very tasty, it actually isn't THAT difficult to prepare, they just look and read like involved recipes but once you get started, it comes together fairly quickly. The book itself is also laid out very well so kudos to whoever designed it, it's not just pretty pictures. All of the nutrient info is easy to read in one place and each day of the week is clearly laid out in a cute picture grid with page references to the recipe and anything else you might need to make. It's informative AND has a DYI beauty section for making your own potions! I've lost 10lbs in the first 3 weeks (without stopping alcohol) and have been told by others that I look great. My boyfriend is VERY pleased and told me to keep doing what I'm doing. I have felt hungry a few times (maybe because of my kickboxing workouts) because she doesn't really do the breakfast-lunch-dinner platform but I add in a small portion of healthy fat and/or protein and that gets me by. But I've also gotten better at intermittent fasting. I am sold and will totally be picking up her other books. This is a bit restrictive from "regular" Keto though and I look forward to the end of the cleanse so I can resume some organic dairy and hopefully maintain the headstart this gave me.

This book has changed my life. I have been trying Ketogenic diets for several years, but still had trouble with weight loss and health issues, and could not get the weight off. This book taught me how to eat nutritionally, while enjoying the food. We enjoy the recipes in the book (and now other books written by Maria Emmerich such as "Restaurant Favorites") to the extent that my husband and I prefer to stay home and eat food we have cooked for ourselves over going to almost all restaurants. For 30 days, I eliminated dairy and nuts (in addition to grains, sugars, root vegetables) while eating delicious and filling meals. After the 30 days, I tried adding dairy back in, but it immediately made me feel sick, so I cut it out permanently (not as hard as I thought it would be). Eliminating dairy allowed me to quickly lose the weight, and has helped me to regain energy. I was able to add in nut flours after the 30 days with seemingly no adverse effects. I will do the 30 day cleanse again for the month of January and test the nut flours again after the cleanse. This will not be a big transition since I keep going back to recipes from the cleanse book anyway. I love all of Maria's books and am looking forward to her new dairy free book coming out this week (I pre-ordered from Amazon). Many of the recipes in her other books have dairy free alternatives (such as coconut milk). This way of eating does not require any willpower after the first few days, the food is that good - it is nutritious and filling, and I am able to eat two meals a day (as recommended in the cleanse book).

I have a confession to make. A few years back I stopped buying "cookbooks." I figured I could find whatever I wanted online. Then I started reading about The 30 Day Ketogenic Cleanse. As a long time follower of Maria's I knew what I was hearing and reading was true. I gave in and ordered the book. I honestly can stay this book changed my life. I have been keto for the most part since around 2000. I still learn from Maria. After years of saying I would never go dairy free( because I like cream in my coffee/decaf) this book gave me the knowledge and the strength to do it. After not being able to move the scale in a long time , it finally started moving again. I lost inches, my skin looks great and I feel great. As the title states the cleanse is 30 days. Once you arm yourself with the knowledge that Maria and her husband Craig have to offer, you will want to make it a lifestyle. I don't eat "cleanse" food 100% of the time but I do most of the time and the rest of the time I rely on Maria's other books for inspiration. I am not kidding when I say I feel like I am eating gourmet food when I follow Maria's recipes..they are that good. Combine the recipes with the information you gain and this book is quickly worth the investment. I bookmark all of my "Maria" books and end up carrying them around with me like they are school books. I highly recommend the actual book, as all of her books are really beautiful. I honestly can't sing the praises of this book enough! Whether you are new to keto or you need a great refresher, this is the book you need. (It also would be a great book to give as a gift to friends or family who want to learn about Keto.)

Tengo varios libros de esta autora. Este libro en concreto es una guía básica para iniciarse en esta dieta con un plan de 30 días. En ese aspecto está muy bien. Bien también para coger ideas. Como aspecto negativo, habitual en esta e tipo de dietas, demasiada carne.

Muchas recetas buenas pero demasiado difíciles para estar cocinando después del trabajo. Lastima que no pueden ser recetas más fáciles y rápidas. Por eso no le doy 5 estrellas.

This book is full of information about the benefits of keto, the dangers of sugars and other processed carbs and most importantly, how to heal our bodies from years of sugar. Maria then includes 4 weeks of meal plans, carefully created to kickstart keto, which turned me into a fat burner in no time. I feel amazing and my clothes are all getting roomy, just in a few weeks. The many many recipes will definitely cater to almost everyone, even picky eaters, with basics such as sloppy joes, chili and waffles and more gourmet meals... all low carb. Meal planning is necessary though but I find I'm not cooking as much as I expected to as we get a lot of leftovers. I've tried many recipes and my family has yet to complain. There are a few that have very unique ingredients, such as bone marrow, which I haven't braved yet but there are more than enough alternate recipes to skip over those for now... until I get the courage :). Because of how much we loved the recipes in this book, I've already ordered two more of Maria's cookbooks and once budget permits, I'll be adding them all. Maria is an incredible cook and I love how easy she makes it possible to stay and ENJOY low carb eating. Definitely recommend this to everyone, even non keto believers.

Ottimo libro, fantastica la parte che spiega la dieta chetogenica. Belle ricette. L'unica pecca è che molti prodotti richiesti per le ricette sono difficilmente reperibili in Italia.

Good
