I love eating raw garlic, but it makes my breath stink. Brushing my teeth doesn’t really seem to work! I don’t want to give up the garlic!

A mouth wash like listerine plus a peppermint sweet for the belly should do it.

I finished off a jar of minced garlic once, the following day my skin smelt of Garlic.
A good deodorant may also be required

Italians have faced this problem for centuries! What they do is chew on a coffee bean after eating a meal containing lots of garlic. It works like a charm.

There are properties in coffee which combat odors. Think about this: drug smugglers pour ground coffee in boxes which contain their drug packages in order to throw the drug sniffing dogs off track.

two pieces of mint gum should work. if not drink some milk, then eat some gum. milk should over power the garlic breath and the mint the milk.

Garlic breath is, simply put, hideous and something no one enjoys encountering. Simply quitting eating garlic is the best way to rid yourself of bad breath, but if it is a passion that can’t be helped, there are a few things you can do. You can rely on gum or some strong mint, taking them wherever you go. In addition to brushing your teeth, try flossing as well. Buy and keep a bottle of coke or some other strong tasting drink – it will help overlap the smell of garlic.

Hope this helped.

Fresh parsley is a known breath freshener. You could try chewing on some of that to help neutralize the odor. However, if you tend to eat a lot of garlic it begins to seep through your pores which in turn gives you body odor as well.

You should eat yogurt. Try it!

Boil a pot of water with some parsely so it is tea-like and sip it.
Actually, why dont you just buy a pack of peppermint tea, it really works b/c it goes through your body and washes out all the toxins and garlic with it. You could also sweat it out by exercising then having a shower. What about soda water? It makes you digest all the gassy garlic out of your system by making you burp :) I love soda water with a good squeeze of lemon, its the most refreshing thing you can drink….probably kills all the garlic smell too.
