7 Natural Ways to Get Rid of Bad Breath from Garlic

Mustard

Mustard can help a lot with this problem, if you take one teaspoon of it and start rolling it and swishing it in your mouth for about one minute, and then spit it out. Afterwards you will take ½ teaspoon of mustard again, but this time you will swallow it. This way it will penetrate deep into your lungs, where the blood stream is transporting the garlic’s sulfur compounds.

Drink a lot of fluid, mostly milk!

Milk contains a lot of fat, which helps in the reduction of the garlic breath, because the combination of fat and water has the ability to neutralize the oral malodors. So you will take one glass of full-fat milk after you are done with the garlic, and the results will come very fast.

Eat a Lot of Yogurt!

Chew Coffee Beans

This may not be very pleasant, but believe me, it is very effective, because coffee beans are full of ingredients that have antibacterial effects. So whenever you are having problem with garlic breath, go for the coffee beans, it is one of the most effective methods to neutralize the odor.

Use Breath Mints and Peppermint Chewing Gums

Chew Parsley

This is one of the best herbs if you want to neutralize the garlic breath, because it contains high levels of chlorophyll, and by consuming it, you are inserting great anti-inflammatory and great antibacterial ingredient, which will also freshen up your breath.
