The Best Natural Ways to Get Rid of Garlic Breath

Garlic’s health benefits are many, including fighting cancer and lowering cholesterol and blood pressure, but many people pass because of the garlic-breath effects. These natural remedies ought to help out.

Eat parsley

“Sulfur compounds in garlic are released not only in the mouth, but also in the gut, from which they seep into the lungs and skin,” says Victor Sierpina, MD, professor of family and integrative medicine at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Texas. This makes freshening garlic breath more complex than merely cleansing the mouth—though it’s a good place to start. It’s handy that chefs decorate plates with parsley: Plant chemicals like chlorophyll and polyphenols bind to sulfur compounds in garlic and help neutralize odor. Basil, thyme, cilantro, mint and dill have similar effects.

 

Sip milk

Milk effectively reduces garlic breath if you drink it before or during a meal, a Journal of Food Science study suggests. “The water [in the milk] acts like a mouth rinse, and the fat neutralizes sulfur,” says Kantha Shelke, PhD, food scientist and Institute of Food Technologists member. That’s why whole milk is more effective than skim.

 

Drink green tea

Can’t stomach milk with stir-fry? Polyphenol-rich green tea may dull garlic stench too.

 

Add mushrooms to your tomato sauce

Preliminary research suggests that the polyphenols in mushrooms work faster than any other compound to counteract garlic’s effects on breath, says Shelke.

 

Have fruit for dessert

Natural enzymes in healthy fruits such as apples, berries, pineapple and kiwis break down garlic’s sulfur compounds. The best way to do this is with a healthy helping of fruit salad.’

Suck on a lemon

Grab a lemon after you’ve eaten crushed garlic. The acid from a lemon neutralizes alliinase, which is an odor-causing enzyme that is released from crushed garlic.’

Drink water

If you’re wondering how to get rid of garlic breath in the simplest way, just drink water. Water will wash out any garlic that got stuck in your teeth or is sitting on your tongue. Swish around the water to make sure it can clear out anything in between your teeth.

Chew gum

After eating a meal with a lot of garlic, chew on a piece of minty gum to get rid of the smell. Not only will it leave a fresh scent in your mouth, but it will also stimulate saliva production which helps to wash away bacteria and food in the mouth.

 

Floss

This will help dislodge any stinky garlic particles stuck in your teeth.
