 What's going on? I'm going to take you guys through the day of a life of a New York City carnivore and my life is a lot different than most people in New York City because I live in one of the boroughs and I actually do still drive a car so most of you guys might not actually be like oh he's not a you're not a real New Yorker and this is also a day off in my life because if I was working I would literally just be getting up going to work coming home there wouldn't really be anything for me to film because I can't film at work and I can't I don't know if you guys are familiar with filming in public in a lot of New York places but it doesn't work out too well so I actually I was recording like me waking up me doing my makeup and stuff and then that's a joke guys I don't wear makeup I woke up I just wipe my face with a wet rag I came down here well got dressed came down here drank some reverse osmosis water I see only part of my day I didn't film so far so it's 9 a.m. the game plan was I had an interview at 12 for a staffing company in Manhattan I had an interview at one o'clock for a restaurant in Manhattan and then as you can see you know bartenders don't really have to dress up too much for an interview I used to dress up in suits and stuff and like I would never get the job I used to wear button downs and stuff sometimes I get the job with button downs if it was higher and stuff but you don't have to dress up for bartending interviews I guess that's one the nice thing is you don't have to dress up for interviews the con is I don't have a job and I'm a bartender right and then after that we were going to go to an orthodontist appointment at one o'clock so I got to move that a little later and then I was going to drop some bread off at my grandma's I got this I baked this this naturally fermented sourdough bread it's made with iron corn wheat it's the first type of wheat there was a very different crumb structure very dense very very high in calories the healthiest version of bread you could literally eat there's a bunch of heirloom and indigenous grains and I baked this bread for my family because I mean my dad eats like so much bread and my family eats so much bread I figured this is a healthy alternative instead of them eating that so I definitely want to drop this off of my grandma's and she's never had this before so I want to see how she likes it and to that I have to come back up to my parents house for an interview and then we're going to go to probably gonna I have to go go take care of my sister too so we'll line that up with the interview my parents I'll go take care of my sister for a couple hours and then I'm going to probably cook dinner for my family and then we're gonna actually eat myself you know this is not like I usually only eat once a day sometimes I eat two times a day and today is actually the first day of my technically third day but first day of recording my Eskimo diet of salmon and I'll show you guys all my stuff later but right now it's only nine o'clock so I don't really have anything to do for an hour or two if I do decide to go down to the city that is because I might change my mind and say screw the interviews it's nice outside let me just get an hour or two of sun instead and then we'll go to the orthodontist so I'm probably going to do like an interview or two for my youtube channel and do some video editing right now and then I will check in with you guys and I just had the water that's all I'm going to have it is a beautiful day and it's uh it's 11 o'clock the reason 11 o'clock is important it's because it's typically the time I would start tanning and the reason for that is the peak uv index is usually at 1 p.m so if I want to tan for three or four hours in a day when I'm off I would go outside uh you know one or two hours before and after peak uv just to get the most bang for my buck in regards to sun exposure and even though today is super duper cold it's literally like the coldest day uh since summer it's all I think it's like 45 50 degrees outside in the sun's rays and you guys can see it's super nice outside today like the soup as clear as the sky can get perfect beautiful day for canning even though it's the end of october and it's like not necessarily the best time you can still get plenty of sun and uv and vitamin d uh you know for two or three hours out here uh I usually try to do this every single day I can uh if I'm off and it's sunny outside I mean this usually only happens like maybe two or three times a week in the summer and then be once or twice a week at other parts of the year and now that it's getting cold outside and uh you know the the sun's rays aren't penetrating the hemisphere as much I pretty much have to go to the tanning salon so uh we'll probably do that later um and because I have to do an interview today I have a bunch of other things to do uh since I don't have time to lay out here for two or three hours and I have some things to do on my computer I got to go down for the interview later uh we're just going to hit up the tanning salon later probably uh but it really really is a nice day uh usually I'll just lay out here in my underwear for like two or three hours sometimes I'll even just like I'll just hang out on my phone for an hour or two uh even just to tan my face get some UV exposure and uh really makes me feel good this is one of the most important elements that I think people miss in regards to kind of achieving optimal health uh definitely check out my greek god video on vitamin d3 if you guys want to know more about this uh but yeah no it's really a shame I have to be inside all day it's so nice out all right so I gotta leave now because I'm going to be late for my dentist appointment but uh I was I was planning on going on this interview in the city uh I looked the place up you know and what really happened was I had to do an interview for my youtube channel and I could not uh finish the interview in time to make it down to the city for the interview so uh we're just gonna go to my it's like 12 30 now 12 40 I gotta be my orthodontist at one o'clock I'm gonna drive over there real quick uh then oh I forgot to bread uh then we're gonna go to my grandma drop off the bread that I made for her then I'm gonna go up to my parents house right where I am now uh back up here for an interview and then we'll go home and uh we'll actually do some zealocarp carnivore stuff I'll go to the gym later but I can't film that because I got uh I got a warning for my gym I might get banned if I film again in the gym uh but actually just to show you guys here's a dehydrator I was dehydrating some uh some fish eggs doesn't look like this turned out too well the inside's still a little soft so they turn out the day or two and I'll try them smell pretty smell funky and tasty and those are actually those are actually dehydrated at a raw temperature so they're still preserves the rawness of the food into the uh into the very old car we go I could show them I could just you guys can sit here and watch me drive the good thing is now I don't have to worry about bringing my camera down to the city but what are you gonna do uh we still don't have to go down to the city I just don't have to like film in the city walking the with the camera on the street okay I just got my uh new bottom retainers at the orthodontist uh wasn't too late it wasn't too bad but now I'm gonna head over to the well one of the boroughs of Manhattan visit my grandma drop off some bread and maybe I'll get her to tell you guys a story so my grandma did not want to be on camera I actually did film her tell uh she was talking about how like her grandma used to give her cod liver oil uh she was talking about how like they used to scramble eggs with up up with like chicken intestines how they used to always eat veal liver calves liver brain all it's like just all these really traditional old school organ meats that these Italians used to eat but she doesn't want to be uh she doesn't want to be on camera so um I just I dropped off some bread um that I made for her the naturally fermented sourdough bread I actually had to show her how to put more butter in the eggs and how to do the eggs because she wasn't doing it right and if you guys want to see my car um I picked this up last year uh when my youtube channel started taking up I'm joking guys if I jump over Mercedes I wouldn't be making goddamn youtube videos um this is my car you guys like the back I got the dash cam uh let's just say my car is older than you think it would be for having 50,000 miles on it um let's put it this way if I spend if I spend $50 a week in gas for the whole year that's worth more than my car the amount of gas I spend on it for the whole year so hopefully that gives you guys some context of what I'm working with and um you know I just don't think I'll I mean obviously I would like to uh I need I need any better car just for my safety like uh right now I really uh I mean like driving this in the warmer month is fine but when the winter comes it's definitely when it rains outside uh definitely should not be driving this car so um I don't really want to show you guys uh the outside I mean you guys should probably tell what model car it is from the inside but I just didn't want to give away like my license plate or just any other information because it's a commercial vehicle so I have the address on the side of the car um but now uh that was that what else I'm gonna oh I was thinking about uh so I had a long conversation with my grandma not really long but I was talking to her about like what she should do trying to increase the omega-3's in her diet just so she feels a little better and I'm gonna make her some tuna fish so I'm gonna go down I'm gonna get the guy from the fish market to bring me like uh maybe five or ten pounds of tuna I'm gonna can some tuna um hopefully that turns out good I gotta think of a marinade for it and then we'll maybe some can some tuna for her I also gotta pick her up some cod liver oil pills I bought her canned cod liver I bought her liquid she didn't want to take it so now I gotta get her something else to get the omega-3 in her diet I'm gonna head back up uh to uh where my family is I'm gonna go on an interview at that restaurant and uh then we'll go home and we'll do some more interesting stuff I guess at least stuff pertaining more to the carnivore diet all right guys I just got out of my interview end looks like Frankie boy you might be seeing a little bit of Frankie boy let's just leave it at that um I did get a job offer uh we'll see how this pans out you know it's weird because it's not in Manhattan and I've only worked in Manhattan but um I'm looking forward to seeing how this goes over the next few weeks maybe month or two and um you know definitely gonna be getting some extra income uh maybe I'll finally be able to afford a better car uh in that case um but I'm excited I'll keep I'll keep you guys posted uh and um maybe in a couple weeks I'll give you guys an update all right guys I just got home it is 4 30 not bad for a day right I dropped off some food to my grandma oh I the interview earlier was with Kasumi Chris crystal and uh that interview might be published before this but definitely check that out from the four-year vegan to carnivore and she had amazing results but you know it not bad right got a job see how that goes over the next few weeks what what what did I want to say about that um I'm like five for five in my last five interviews I'm pretty good right but anyway I just got home the game plan is we're gonna eat I gotta make some sourdough bread I gotta make some patarga I have a couple of things to do I got to finish editing that video on my computer uh but first I'm gonna eat and then uh the bread needs to rise so we'll probably do the bread next and I guess let's just go get rolling in but first you guys get to meet my lovely sister Gina you never wear makeup Gina why don't you uh introduce yourself to the camera my youtube people I'm frank sister Gina why don't you tell me how hard of a time you gave me this morning uh when you were getting ready I mean how are you acting this morning Gina I was not acting very nice okay which I apologize for and I am doing better and as you know my brother Frank is a trainer bartender he's an extraordinary there Gina why don't you tell them how much weight you lost and how much better you feel I lost 40 pounds oh thanks to this more than 40 pounds Gina how much did you use the weight you used to weigh what 150 and now we weigh what 100 yeah so you lost more than 40 pounds right you're more than 40 pounds and to tell the truth ever since I've lost the weight I do not crave any sweets you say that but how many how many cook you had at least one cookie a week right at your program not not ever not this week not this week or okay so well the point is she usually doesn't stick to her diet too well so we're gonna have some salmon today this is all the meat that's actually in my fridge right now this is a bunch of lamb fat that's probably going to be aging for another week or two I'm probably gonna I gotta lower this to this rack down here actually but down here is a bunch of bags of salmon this is a mess probably I'm gonna have to clean this up I just I'd like the fish delivery came yesterday and it was like the bag was ripped it was in a box full of crushed diet it was a mess and the only real way to keep these fillets is in these bags like this maybe we'll find a warmer two for you guys today so my bag is salmon nice salmon fillet we'll throw on the grill we got some stuff from amazon too probably my my long john something else we're gonna go outside put my grill on first thing as I said I want to do I just want to eat something because I do want to work out later so I want to digest for at least a couple hours this is going to be like the first good actual like cooking segment because I have a windscreen on this mic now you guys can hear this so I usually just I take some random wood I chop it up over there I guess I'll show you guys that I just I got this stump and I'm like like a street by one of the schools in my neighborhood and I've been chopping wood on this ever since all right so I got two pieces of wood in the grill light this up this is probably going to take about five minutes to warm up I'm just going to go inside I'm going to get everything prepped I need to cook out here okay so I cut up a bunch of the salmon I didn't talk about this yet this is faro island scottish salmon there's no real wild salmon in season and this is actually like the most kind of ethically farmed salmon there is the highest quality it's decent stuff I'm going to just be doing it for the Eskimo diet for a little while and here I got some steaks that I'm just grilling for my family so just the one thing to note about this salmon is when you put this on a really hot flame the skin peels off and then I have to sear it normally and it's super fatty so I don't have to oil it or anything I'm going to towel out here if you guys want to actually like grill salmon and keep the skin on it it's very difficult to do you need to oil the gray the skin of the salmon needs to be really dry the temperature of the grill has to be just right not too hot this is a little too hot for that and then the main one of the main reasons I use a grill is to avoid like well the mess in the kitchen and the fat oxidation in the pan that you usually get that's pretty good still like it's it's pretty much really really raw on the inside I'm gonna have a piece of this one out here and so what I love so much about this diet you literally just put a piece of meat on a fire and it tastes good no salt no seasoning no nothing I don't usually do this guys guys you need a chef you need me to grill your salmon skin on skin off doesn't matter it's perfect this is a a crispy piece with the skin on that's so good this is the belly part it's like pure fat pure salmon fat all right let me lower the seat you guys haven't read the fat of the land bob the armor stephenson it talks about like their preference for fatty parts of the animal and this isn't the example of like one of the parts they would have eaten right at least prize I'm not even that hungry anymore like after those two pieces of fatty belly I'm kind of like you know over it look at that huh I'm gonna cook my family's food I'm gonna let this rest for a few minutes and then we'll go inside and eat so here I have some flounder row this was a two dollars a pound at the local fish market I've been messing around trying to make batarga and stuff which is it's like cured salted fish row I'm trying to figure out how to make it but that's what I'm using most of it for because I mean I could just I put some of it in a jar just to ferment it but I obviously don't just want to be eating a bunch of rotten fish or although that's I'm sure some of you guys would love it and I'm thinking about actually making it into a product that I could sell but I'm trying to figure it out the taste is okay I mean it's not salmon row you know it's like very it's pretty much looks like orange pudding yesterday it was super fresh now it has a bit more flavor really tasty so salmon row is and well not salmon row but just fish eggs in general have all the fat soluble vitamins and in every indigenous group uh fish eggs were the food that people fed to their pregnant and nursing woman if they didn't have access to foods like high quality raw dairy I tended to be either fish eggs or like liver or spring butter spring milk spring cheese definitely the most prized high quality animal food that there was out of well all of them really just because it has literally a complete fat soluble vitamin profile adek water soluble vitamin b and c more dha than any food that's why fish eggs are so healthy for you the amount of dha eclipses even wild caught fish um I'm just gonna take uh some salmon if you guys look at the temperature it's like it's pretty much raw in the middle I just put a little bit of salt on top I was thinking about using coconut aminos but I don't really put that much salt on anyway so coconut aminos wouldn't really reduce my salt intake now for me like I really enjoy adding salt more than not I mean I ate a whole filet out there a couple filets out there without salt on them but see like this piece here really raw in the middle so I think Japanese call this like beat like tataki where the outside is seared and the inside's completely raw aka blue rare honestly I'm just going to go on MasterChef this season I'm going to open up I'm going to do decent on the show I'm going to open up Frankie's grill and I'm just going to have a giant wood fire throw everything on the grill season it marinate it it's going to be amazing is a piece with the skin the skin gets really crispy and burned fast like pure just like char burn I do have some concerns about like the source of the salmon but that's why I'm only going to have it for about a week a week and a half just to kind of complete this Eskimo diet thing I was pretty good I ate about half the salmon that I took out the half of that filet maybe a little more I would save this for later really really full I'm not stuffed but I'm definitely really satiated so kind of make some bread make some bread I'm not going to film that for you guys the bread the bread thing you guys I'll hopefully I'll publish a video soon on sourdough bread it might not be for a while so make the bread edit some videos the next time you guys are going to see me is I'm going to do that and then I'm going to I'll we're going to go to the tanning salon uh I'm probably actually not going to bring you guys with me I guess I can like I could just show you guys like me walking to this like outside of this lawn I could show you guys like me walking to in and out of the gym but I can't film in those places so I figure like what's the point but uh maybe I'll just take you guys along uh for the ride in the car and um and then we will come back and we'll eat the rest of this later but I didn't touch on the of course the the salmon row and the fish row the flounder row was nutritionally complete the salmon is just I mean salmon has pretty much every fat side with vitamin two it's pretty much the row but to like a less concentrated extent and of course with more fat and more calories I did want to show you guys um oh this is my made some sushi for my sister but she doesn't want it so I'm probably gonna throw it out up this is just the can of fish row I actually separated it from the egg sacks and I did a whole video on fish row that might not be up for a while too but that this is very time consuming to do that's why I left most of them in the skies here and these are sitting in like um a salt water marinade uh for a day or two and then I'm gonna oil I gotta oil them now I think and then we'll um oil them now and maybe add a little more salt and try to dry them out let me just show you guys what I'm doing so here I got the the egg sacks from the fish row that I got the other day that were kind of whole I'm curing them with salt and olive oil to make patargo as a preserved food I have some bread dough rising in the bottom oven just to stay warm here I have the egg sacks that were kind of like open and broken and this is how you actually make caviar you just cut open the egg sack and you scrape the eggs out with a knife and the fish has to be kind of fresh to do this if it's frozen the eggs will just burst and you just want to make sure that there's no membrane in the eggs and then that's your caviar some membrane there this is what I'll be doing for the next hour or two before I leave all right guys I got my workout clothes on this is my new outfit I bought just some like cheap pains sweatpants and sweatshirt I bought a medium shirt and a medium pants and I think I'm going to regret not buying a large shirt and small pants but I don't know I'll see how I mean should be fine I mean it's just I wish the I wish the top was a little longer and I wish the legs were a little shorter so maybe I'll switch the sizes but I'm gonna go to the tanning salon then we're gonna go to the gym and then I'll come home probably eat again and I guess I'll finish baking my bread but again that's going to be in a different video guys so I'm not showing you guys the the bread baking I was just thinking like I can't film at the tanning salon I can't film at the gym so uh like what's the point of like what am I just gonna walk on the street and tell you guys what I'm doing and then like go in my car like so uh let me just show you guys what I'm gonna do for the rest of the day and I'll show you my hygiene stuff now and then we'll say good night so this was just my second meal I did cook I took out some more fish row and I cooked the salmon a little more I don't know how much of that I'm gonna eat um the stuff that I didn't really show you guys you know I wasn't really staying too well hydrated today but here I have this is uh just the clay the kaolin clay water and um I also have some seaweed and sometimes what I do is I use the seaweed for electrolytes I just some kelp some kombu you know seaweed has a very good mineral profile very high in potassium very high magnesium excellent source of electrolytes that's usually what I do for that I have some hygiene stuff in my parents house most of it is actually in my apartment um but I could I have most of the stuff here so I could show you guys anyway this is just a a water pick a water flosser uh ever since I had my jaw surgery with the braces and the wired shut this is like my saving grace like this water flosser is by far my favorite thing for cleaning my mouth here I have a tongue scraper I have a dental brush which brushes all the other stuff just an electric toothbrush I here's the toothpaste I make and here's the deodorant I make um I'm looking for a way to produce these I have to find I haven't found anyone yet uh some guys suggested someone on Twitter but I got to look into it get a production line going for some cosmetic products uh sort of that like like this is what I used to shave just a straight razor sometimes my combs I don't really use I don't really use any I don't use any products for my hair guys I don't um I do sometimes I'll like slick it back with water but that's about it I don't have my lip balm here I don't have my soap here those are some other products that I've been making but outside of that guys let me just show you my my nighttime setup up here so this is just I sleep on a fresh towel every night there's a clean towel so I don't have to clean the the pillowcase every night this is just a night mask to uh to block the light when I sleep and here I just have some earplugs it just helps like increase the quality of sleep that is my day guys I am sorry I can't film anywhere in New York like there's there's like no there's nowhere to film I can't film I can't go somewhere without someone bothering me like I I'm gonna get my gym membership canceled on me like I can't I can't even film like my family and stuff so uh I know you guys like these vlog style videos and I really don't know how a lot of these big youtubers do it maybe it's because they're not in New York or they're they're somewhere else where people don't really care but I've noticed I can't really film in any public place without getting in trouble or something and and this has happened everywhere I've even tried to I don't even try I don't even want to try filming in my my supermarket to do like an on-the-go video you know what am I gonna do but thank you guys for watching um if you guys like to see more stuff like this let me know and maybe I'll try to think about where I can improve videos like this um uh yeah I'm just gonna go I'm not gonna I'm probably not gonna eat I'm probably just gonna go maybe I'll go to tanning salon gym then I'll go to bed um but I just feel like you know those clips of like me going into the tanning booth blah blah blah coming out like the gym walking in the gym walking out of the gym I feel like I'm missing those things but what do you do I'm not honestly willing to really you know it to me it adds production value but it doesn't really add like like you guys know what I'm doing I'm not gonna uh like if you guys want to know more about tanning I covered my vitamin D3 video if you guys want to know why I um if you guys like want to know my workout routine I'm not sharing that for free so too bad but outside of that uh you know all this other information it was just kind of just to show you guys what I do on a day today and a day today and day to day like just to kind of get you guys an understanding of the various aspects of my health that you might be missing and I know we didn't really cover like um we didn't really cover electrolytes too much I didn't really show you guys a lot of that because I just all I did was I drank the distilled water this lighting in your stubble I drank the distilled water um at in the morning and then I drank a little more distilled water throughout the day I didn't actually stay as hydrated as I wanted to and then like just right now I showed you guys the seaweed and some clay water that'll probably go down and drink later but yeah that's I mean that's unfortunately how it is like a lot of times most of my day is like a lot of time just me driving around going on interviews I do stuff like that but we'll see what happens um see if I get this new job we'll see if uh something else pans out but um no I mean my life's pretty boring guys outside of the you know job search and YouTube stuff I'm doing I do some acting stuff on the side sometimes I was thinking about doing like a New York City day in the life of an actor video I would should have probably filmed that once but that's that's the same difficult thing where I can't really film a lot of this stuff so thank you guys for watching if you guys would like to support me please just share the video my website is up now it's frank-tofano.com if you guys would like to support me please check out my amazon shop take out the patreon check out my website if you're interested in one-on-one consultations um but uh I'll say that guys enjoy the rest of your day
