1. A machine for making liquid or semi-liquid food products, comprising:
a first processing container for processing a liquid or semi-liquid product, the first processing container defining a processing chamber;
a stirrer for mixing the product in the first processing container;
a plurality of detection devices adapted to detect a quantity or an operating parameter of the machine and to generate a signal representative of the quantity or of the operating parameter;
a processing and control unit configured to receive the representative signals and to derive an operating condition of the machine based on the signals;
a user interface connected to the processing and control unit and comprising a single control operable by an operator to selectively perform power on and power off of the machine;
wherein the processing and control unit includes an interface configured to receive from a remote control device commands relating to any function other than power on or power off;
a detection device configured to measure a physical parameter of the operator and to enable or inhibit access to the machine by the operator as a function of a value of the physical parameter detected, the physical parameter being a body temperature.
