How can I get rid of garlic BO faster?

Asked by LeavesNoTrace (5674points) September 10th, 2017

We all know that consuming certain things can give you bad breath, but I’m learning the hard way that they can also REALLY make you stink!

I went to a cigar lounge with my SO a few nights ago (last time I do that) which did not help. And the next day, I made a garlic-rich meal for myself that has left me with a sour, garlicky smell seeping out of my pores. Now, no matter how much I shower or brush my teeth or rinse my mouth or wash my clothes—I stink! And when I think about the things I’ve consumed this week (half a cigar, cocktails, dairy, coffee, spices, etc.) the culprits are obvious.

I’ve read that these things will have to work their way out of my system, but I’d like to speed it up to make me fit for human interaction again. Any advice?
