 Today we are doing a raw tarred day of eating and is the name raw tarred truly deserved So for those of you guys that don't know the people that follow the raw primal diet of John is Vonder planets How you know they have all these crazy beliefs like eating raw meat can cure autism It's it's really ridiculous and yes, there are benefits to a raw diet that we will try to address today But there's a reason I call them raw tarts and and come on You know, I love you guys, but let's take a step back to reality. So lately I've been eating only raw meat. My sleep has been worse since I started eating raw meat Usually I only sleep okay when I eat cooked meat, but I've just been craving the raw meat more over the past two weeks So if you guys take a look at the day of eating I did like three or four weeks ago I was doing cooked ground beef with a homemade bone broth and I would have about you know Three-quarters of a pound to a pound of beef twice a day I'm doing slightly less meat about three-quarters of a pound twice a day consistently and I'm doing it completely raw So the diet is slightly less inflammatory. My skin's been a little clearer My digestion has been better, but I guess let me just show you guys what I've been doing lately So since I'm still doing this bodybuilding nonsense My primary goal when I wake up is get my calories and first thing I do as soon as I wake up Eat as much meat as I can eat as much honey as I can so here I just have some pretty lean ground beef from Frankie's Syringe meat and Lately I've been adding about like a teaspoon to a tablespoon of mustard For every pound of ground beef I'll throw a little bit of salt and pepper on it as well just to add some flavor I actually just bought some Shallots and I forgot to get some capers that I might try you know doing more steak tartar like stuff Because I'm getting a little bit bored of the mustard, but this is what I've been doing consistently for about three weeks now Just you know raw meat mustard a little bit of salt We have some raw honey here that I usually just like eat off camera and stuff because you know You like eating it over the course of about an hour or so. I mean, this is super simple all I really do is I'll put on a glove so I don't have to Wash my hands too much So we got the ground beef got some salt I'll take about that much mustard about a teaspoon and this really depends on what type of mustard you have Some mustards are much more pungent like this one So that might actually be a little too much But other mustards you can add a little bit more depending on how much vinegar they add it to them So then I'll take that pinch of salt and I'll put it on the mustard so that when I mix it in it Mixes in pretty well. That's really it. You know just you know use my hands to try to Distribute everything as easily as possible. I was using some fish sauce, but the fish sauce kept making me break out with the the very high histamine content so We're just sticking to mustard for now. Oh I did add some horseradish a couple days ago when I ran out of mustard So horseradish is pretty tasty too But I'll let you guys know as I continue to experiment with the different steak tartare recipes If you guys do want a steak tartare recipe, I did one probably a year ago now That you can check out like all the things you can add to steak tartare But that's the bulk of the meal you guys might have noticed like a bunch of different supplements and powders on my counter I am doing a couple different experiments with vitamin C and other stuff right now I'm not taking any supplements besides copper. The only thing I'm doing is taking a corresponding amount of copper Depending on the amount of meat I'm eating every day since I haven't been sleeping like too well the past week I stopped all the supplements, but it might just be that you know I'm exposing myself to a lot more Wi-Fi and I have a lot more stress going on these past a few weeks so You know I was doing magnesium vitamin K2 some vitamin D3 as well as the the beef testee supplement I have an organ supplements and I'm probably going to start taking those again because They don't seem to be what was causing the sleeping issues. So this is it really the the meat in the bowl and Right now I'm using just regular copper glycanid supplement the vitamin C powders all of that other stuff Maybe I'll make a video sometime in the near future about that, but right now I haven't been using them This is one pound of ground beef usually I Finish about three quarters of a pound then I save the rest for later That way every two days I go through three pounds of ground beef as opposed to You know wasting an extra pound and using four pounds What I've actually found is if you let this sit out for like five six seven eight nine ten hours Which goes against all current food safety guidelines. It actually tastes better So what I was thinking of even doing was you know prepping this tonight before and letting it sit out And then having it the next morning That's where the you know the bacteria count increases More beneficial microbes and the difference between eating Raw ground beef and cooked ground beef is I don't have to drink water Like this goes down nice and easy, but when you eat the cooked food you get kind of thirsty One thing that raw Tars always bring up is enzymes without actually understanding what they are There are enzymes specific to meat and the purpose of those is to guide the fermentation process The breakdown of the protein the fats and the lactic acid in the meat The enzymes that are produced by your body for digestion are what break down protein fat and Carbohydrates what makes a raw diet easier on the stomach is not the presence of the enzymes in the raw meat It's that you did not cook and denature the protein What's actually also pretty close to a raw diet is if you just lightly poach the meat As opposed to overcooking everything like you do nowadays the lighter You cook the meat the less you denature the proteins the easier those proteins will be broken down by our bodies own enzymes I still haven't done like an in-depth enzyme video or You know a comparison video of how our stomachs digest raw meat versus cooked meat But from an anecdotal and practicing standpoint The body Digests raw meat much more efficiently, you know it takes longer to go through your body Produces less waste you feel more energized the main purpose of cooking the food is For a lot of plant foods for certain parts of the animal, you know, this is ground beef That's why I'm able to eat it raw, you know, some parts of the animal are so tough You know collagen is that you can't even eat them without cooking So, you know my belief is that a big part of cooking was to extract more calories from a carcass as opposed to, you know, cooking every single cut specifically Cooking and fermentation can kind of go interchangeably in how they they break down the meat So since we are eating predominantly protein Now you're hoping that your stomach acid is high enough to break down the protein into amino acids That you have enough pepsin being produced by your body Because we don't need starch digesting enzymes on a carnivore diet And if this meets relatively lean The amount of bile and lipase that your body needs to produce is relatively low and since our carbohydrate source is honey Which is pure glucose and fructose and the glucose is Absorbed, you know, doesn't have to be processed. It just absorbs through the intestine and the fructose is processed by the liver So from an enzyme perspective This is pretty much the least inflammatory diet you can follow when you start incorporating fats and starches And that's where you have more digestive stress From an enzyme perspective and this is going to be the main discrepancy for most people Is do you feel better on a raw diet? Predominantly leaner meats and honey and fruits or do you feel better on a raw diet with, you know A lot of fat like butter and cream and dairy this meal is, you know, really just protein a lot of B vitamins That's why I take the magnesium the vitamin K2 I Take iodine sometimes too just to make sure I'm covering all my bases and of course the copper But when you eat a large amount of animal protein like this The amount of things you have to supplement to get complete nutrition from a vitamin and mineral perspective is really minimal You know, just those things that I've shown you guys. I've taken in my recent day of eating videos You take those you literally cover all your bases. The only thing I didn't cover really was omega-3 But you know the omega-3 requirement for a human is relatively low And if the omega-3 to omega-6 ratio in your diet is balanced like it would be eating grass-fed beef Then your body can actually efficiently convert some of the alpha linoleic acid in grass-fed beef into DHA and EPA So I can finish this but I'm not going to I've been trying to reduce my digestive stress lately so now all I'm going to do is take the copper supplement two milligrams and then I'm going to Probably drink a bunch of water with honey in it. If you guys want like specific amount of carbohydrates. I'm consuming every day probably like 350 to 400 grams, which is a crap ton of Honey, and I'm doing some experimenting with some other carbohydrate sources that I might show you guys in the future, but right now Anywhere from 300 to 400 grams of sugar worth of honey every day, and I try to space it out So with the meal I'm going to do 100 grams and then in an hour or two I'll do another 100 grams then I'll work out and a hundred grams of carbs is about five tablespoons of honey So it's not actually like a lot, you know like if you ate a jar of honey, that would be well over You know 400 grams of carbs So you know it's not exactly something that's unrealistic from a consumption standpoint But from a nature standpoint it kind of is But it's been working for me so far. I feel pretty good One thing I did want to tell you guys was when I was experimenting with the vitamin C supplements I felt as good as I was eating raw dairy, which is very high in vitamin C So you know if you guys don't have really high quality fresh meat fresh raw dairy You definitely might want to try experimenting with like vitamin C. I think I spoke about this in My histamine video and I also spoke about this in my antioxidant video So I will do a vitamin C video sometime this week or next week But until then, you know ace roll a cherry powder or camo camo powder Rose hip powder any of the natural food source powders of vitamin C are good to try out So I'm gonna go through most of my day and we'll probably just do you know the same exact thing For the meal later, so it's almost 8 30 and I haven't actually worked out yet Maybe once or twice a week, you know where things come up and I don't get to work out as early as I want to I'll actually have my second meal before that later workout. So normally, you know I eat around 11 a.m. Or noon. That's my first meal Then I'll work out around three or four o'clock and then around five six or seven I'll have my second meal today, you know, we ate around noon and now I'm gonna have my second meal at 8 30 and hopefully I finished my workout before 10 o'clock. So, you know, we're gonna eat Then go directly work out. This meal is actually gonna be a little different because I did go to Whole Foods and buy a couple things I wanted to try for the steak tartar. So let me show you guys what we're gonna have So I have that small amount of ground beef left over from earlier that we added a little bit of mustard to So I bought some capers and some shallots that I chopped up very finely These are two very classic steak tartar ingredients And we're gonna add some more mustard and I'm actually gonna crack in some black pepper as well So the only thing I'm missing here is some cornichons some pickles and I might get some pickles from a local farm to add to This next week. They just didn't have any pickles that I wanted to buy at the supermarket I'll take another pound of the ground beef teaspoon of mustard Maybe a teaspoon of capers Teaspoon of shallot. We're gonna crack on some black pepper. And guys, I haven't had anything like this and probably Man Probably since I made that steak tartar video So this obviously isn't a hundred percent carnivore, but we'll see if I like it. I have a feeling I won't I usually tend to like Just the salt and the pepper Technically speaking, I don't think all of the ingredients in this are raw I think the capers and the mustard might be pasteurized, but the mustard may be not pasteurized the capers Still not sure on those. So the only thing missing in this for a really really classic steak tartar Sometimes they add some alcohol some Worcestershire sauce and of course an egg yolk Perhaps the cornichons and some chives, you know, so even though it seems like we're seasoning this a fair bit Classic steak tartar has, you know, a couple more seasonings in it round two of a raw tarred bodybuilding Yeah, I Like it a little more than the mustard definitely an egg yolk, you know what? Let me get the fish sauce. Let's put some fish sauce on it. It's a little better with the fish sauce This is a thing like if I wasn't bodybuilding, I wouldn't be eating this right now Because I'm not hungry, but I know that you gotta eat a decent amount of protein to Maximize muscle growth. It's not that you have to eat when you're full You don't have to stuff yourself You just have to eat when you're not necessarily hungry. I think this would be really good if I let it sit a few hours So maybe I'll do that. I'm gonna have five more tablespoons of honey Then I'm gonna go work out. I'm gonna take the copper again for this meal But that's really gonna be it for today guys just a bunch of raw meat a bunch of honey Very simple protein carbohydrate fuel for the body, you know, we got some nutrients in You know, I laid out in the sun yesterday So we got plenty of vitamin D. The only thing missing is vitamin K2, which I do supplement So if you guys have any more questions, you can definitely check out some past videos I did like raw versus cooked I did a video on raw meat safety and of course I have many Carnivore day meetings as well as raw carnivore day of eating that you guys can look up on my channel If you guys do have any other questions, definitely leave them down in the comments below Of course, you guys can get this Local grass-fed ground beef at Frankie's free range meat calm You can get some of the supplements that I have at organ supplements calm I'm working on a couple more to get you guys And of course we have Frankie's naturals as well as Frank dash if I want a comfort one-on-one diet consultations Thank you guys for joining me today Let me know how you like this if you you know want me to talk about some other things And you know go into some other parts of my day or if you guys like it where I keep you know the food stuff Separate from the lifestyle vlog stuff Have a good night guys
