Karatay explained the foods that will protect our immune system like armor as we enter the autumn and winter months and recommended that we consume these foods every day.
“We need to strengthen our immune armor in these months,” said Karatay; ‘Pickles, pickle juice and vinegar are very important. Start making vinegar at home. Gargle with plenty of vinegar.

Referring to the Eris variant, which has come to the fore frequently in recent days, Karatay said, ‘There is no new virus, brother, all viruses have been sheathing for centuries, variant by variant. These viruses are always there, always dormant. He drew attention with the words ‘When do these activate when the resistance of our body system is broken…’
Karatay also explained the foods we should consume most to strengthen our immune armor during the winter months; ‘We will start drinking head and bone broth every day from now on. Those who can’t make head and foot or can’t drink can make bone broth. These are a must drink. Vitamin D should be high. Vitamin C should be very high. Vinegar and pickle juice contain vitamin C and vitamin E.’ he said.
