How long does garlic breath really last?!
Answers: More than 24h?
Hello,
Garlic breath is very difficult to prevent, but there are some steps that you can take in order to rid yourself of it.
Garlic is made up of a number of biological elements that actually promote the growth of bacteria that already exists within your mouth. This, along with the natural taste of garlic, leads to garlic breath.
Furthermore, once you have consumed garlic, it can be difficult to smell on yourself. At times, you may have garlic breath without even knowing it.
Once you have eaten garlic, there are a number of things that you can do to mask your garlic breath.
Chew on a few sprigs of fresh parsley, for example.
Another option is to chew on fresh mint or to drink a large glass of hot mint tea.
Also, be sure to give your teeth a good brushing and floss as well. Many people also find that tongue scraping is a good way to reduce garlic breath. You can "scrape" your tongue by simply adding a bit of toothpaste to your brush and working on your tongue from back to front. This will help to remove some of the bacteria and odor build up.
Some people also claim that chewing cardamon seeds has a similar effect to parsley and can work as a garlic breath remedy.
If you simply try these remedies then the breath will go within
2-3 hours.But if you don't,then the smell can take upto one and a half day.
I have self experience on this one, so be sure the remedies will cure your problem.
Hope my information helped.
Good luck.
Bye.
it depends on how much you had, it lasts until the garlic is done digesting.

Until you brush your teeth. >.>
2 DAYS
as long as it takes you to brush you teeth.

too long
I'm not too sure about breath...but I know that if you've been cooking with garlic, and your hands smell, you can rub them on the kitchen sink, (like the inside, or even just the spout) or any stainless steel and it takes the smell away immediately. I'm sure it would do the same with your mouth, that is if you want to suck on the kitchen sink.
Now wouldn't that be a weird thing to be caught doing.... :S
