Love garlic, but hate the dreaded garlic breath? It seems to linger almost all day. Here are some other foods to try to diminish bad breath due to garlic.
Research done at the Ohio State University found that eating a fresh or cooked apple, fresh lettuce, or fresh mint helps reduce the volatile compounds in garlic. These compounds react with the phenolic compounds in the apple or mint to trigger an enzymatic deodorization by destroying the odor and volatiles that create garlic breath.
So, enjoy your garlic!
