TESTIMONY OF THE DAY
“Hi Maria! I have to share how you helped saved James!
James journey with Crohn’s began in May of 2001. He was put on all the usual suspects of medications. He would see little if any improvement and would spiral into horrible flare-ups. That’s when we were introduced to steroids. That seemed to be a constant from his gastro doctor.
Over the next year, he was hospitalized on and off for flare-ups and attempts with new medications, even a chemo pill. These were temporary improvements, basically a band-aid on a serious illness.
One day, I rushed him to the ER, and he had a fever of 105.2 and was having seizures. They put him in an ice bath immediately and heavy meds. His WBC was 33,000, and a normal WBC 1 4,500 to 11,000. He was admitted, and each day, his WBC 35,000 to 60, 000.
November 2002, still in the hospital, his WBC reached catastrophic levels. They found nodules inside the small intestines. It was sent to the MAYO clinic, and 5 days later, we had a devastating diagnosis… non Hodgkin’s lymphoma of the small intestines. Worse yet, he was too sick to receive chemo.
Finally, in ICU, he was removed from life support for the 13th time. I was about to leave for a desperate shower, and he coded. There was a blood clot in his lung. 22 minutes after coming off life support, he went right back on it. Now, he was in a 24-hour fight for life. He pulled through. More surgeries, more blood, and now he developed a fungal infection. Halt chemo, treat fungus, very slow moving to heal, back on chemo. After 2 weeks back off life support.
February 2003, we are still in ICU. The night before his release, he developed crippling pain in the bowel. His nurse refused to call the on call doctor. Something was wrong. 5am, they stormed his room and rushed him to surgery. His WBC was 175,000, and his vital organs were shutting down.
Now, as we are in March, he’s stable and back in PT. I requested a dietitian to speak with us. It seemed natural to me since this involved the bowel. They were shocked! I thought diet could have anything to do with his stomach. Weird, but ok. I left and went to the medical library that I had access to from school. I spent weeks learning about Keto and the positive outcomes of many illnesses, especially stomach issues.
We were released and started keto immediately! We were told it would be 2 years before he could walk again, work, drive, bath himself, and I told him… nope. We wasted enough time. We worked around the clock, and as keto was doing it’s magic he was gaining weight, 4800 to 6200 calories a day.
He was 84 pounds at his lowest and 91 pounds at release. By June 2003, he was walking unassisted, and by August, he was skateboarding again.
James was still in chemo, and within weeks of starting Keto, he went into full remission!
He came off of ALL his medications, and his bowel was not only showing no signs of inflammation… there were no visible signs of Chron’s.
By 2004, he was back to normal. We were both healthy from Keto and accepted that because of the Chemo, we’d never have kids. I guess there were other plans, and as I write this, I’m carrying our 3rd child naturally. I give a lot of credit to Keto and endless prayers.” -Liz

equip has 21g in 1 scoop of there powder I calculate the protein with 2 eggs equals 58g of protein
We use the same macro calculations as Cronometer (which has been historically very accurate) to get our nutritional information. I don’t see an issue with these calculations based on our entries 🙂
Maria I don’t have prime chocolate protein powder but I do have the vanilla flavored one how much would I use of cocoa powder?
Thank you 🙏🏽
Start with 1/4 cup. If you want it more chocolatey add more to taste 🙂
FYI, you have macadamia nut/coconut milk in the ingredients but say almond milk in the instructions.
What brand of coffee flavoring did you use?
I use the Iced Coffee flavored Equip Prime Protein: https://mariamindbodyhealth.com/equip-beef-protein-powder/
Do you think I could make this the night before and just heat it up in the morning?
You would have to blend it again as it will thicken over night,
