My boyfriend LOVES garlic. It never bothered me much, because he would only eat it when I put it in the foods I cooked, and I'd always add a bit extra, but not that much.
But recently we bought a huge jar garlic that is already chopped. I thought it would make it easier for me when I cook, not having to clean and chop the garlic myself. Unfortunately, it also makes it easier for my boyfriend to use the chopped garlic...as a condiment. Last night he made himself two hotdogs for dinner, he dressed the hotdogs with mustard, relish ... and GARLIC!!!
He smelled so bad afterwards. I made him get out of bed at night to brush his teeth again and use mouthwash...but it only helped a little.
I've heard that if you eat a lot of garlic the smell will start coming out of your skin ... I'm worried that will happen soon.
Do you have any remedies to help get rid of garlic smells?

the garlic will definitely make him live a long time, especially killing the badness of those two hotdogs. If the garlic smell gets to you, which I know what you mean, because I eat the garlic like he does. Listerine will mask the orders on his breath, but he should take some fresh lemon and squeeze the juice on his skin after he showers to mask the ordors from the body.

My husband does the same too. He loves garlic rice in the morning, he always have a vinegar with garlic as dip for his fried fish and chicken. He has high cholesterol level and his blood pressure is somewhat high. The herbalist told him to eat raw garlic once in a while to control his blood pressure but he do this so often. I hate it when he kisses me cause I get nauseated every time I smell the garlic in his breath. Brushing and mouthwashing can do nothing. I told him to gargle water with baking soda, it helps a little to reduce the odor.
