Garlic: What to do about bad breath?
Rinsing your mouth or brushing your teeth after eating garlic is usually not enough. However, there are home remedies that can help to neutralize the smell of garlic.
The 4 best home remedies for garlic breath
Dairy products: Drink a glass of milk or have some yogurt after eating garlic-containing foods. Dairy products counteract the nasty smell of garlic.
Herbs: Certain herbs, such as parsley, sage or mint, help against the garlic smell. Chew one of these herbs after eating.
Coffee beans: Sounds crazy, but it helps: chew a few coffee beans after eating garlic to eliminate the garlic odor. Caution: If you have problems with your teeth or wear dentures, you should never use this method.
Lemon wedges: The acidity of the citrus fruit softens the smell of garlic. But be careful, please use pure lemon sparingly as citric acid attacks tooth enamel!
