Garlic Breath? Eeeeww! nono:

I'm taking 5,000mg of garlic oil for shedding and i hate it. I belch it up and it's disgusting. I love garlic, but this is too much. My stomach even hurts a little. I take it in the am, and i know i'm offending everyone i come in contact with. My kids are like, "Mom, that's gross! Open a window!" I'm even trying to take it at night, but i think it keeps me from sleeping...i've started MT - again, bcs i've been drooling over your december pics, thanks alot, Aggie and LondonDiva and PuffyBrown and the rest of yous.

I really miss my thickness and volume - and i'm certain this will give it to me. i 'm tired of starting and stopping different regimens and quite honestly, so many things seem to work...i'm trying to streamline and i think mt will help me do this.

Thus, i've started garlic oil again to curtail the shedding that i once had with MT. What do you all do to fight the funk breath? Thanks in advance...sorry for the disgusting post, but i'm desperate...I really want to take it, but i don't want to be a social outcast.erplexed

What brand are you taking? I'm currently taking the Kyolic brand at GNC, and I can say
I haven't had a problem at all with odor, on my breath or belching it up later. This one was recommended to me for that reason.

Maybe you should cut back on the dosage? Maybe 2-3000 mg instead of 5000. I'm not sure what brand your taking but maybe you can switch to odorless garlic capsules. (I found some at Walmart) Also, maybe you should try using it externally (i.e. Garlic shampoo. Maybe using minced garlic marinated in olive oil on the scalp for about 10-15 minutes).

Just a few suggestions. Hope this helps.

I agree, I take 3600mg, 3 600mg capsules twice a day. I personally have faster results with Ayurvedic tea rinses & backing away from the protein for a while, I'm down to using MT/OCT to twice a week & I don't shed nearly as much, I prefer to go right to the source I'm still seeing progress, just less shedding.

GNC Odorless Garlic Tablets haven't given me any problems, neither has Kyolic. The other advice you've gotten about reducing dosage and using garlic externally seems pretty sound. I feel you on starting and stopping reggies though. We have the same issue with thinning and at least for me, when it comes right on down to it, I'd rather get my hair back and just stink.

Girl, now that's funny. I keep hoping, maybe they'll just assume i finished eating italian food...

The prob is this, I bought 2 bottles of Puritans' Pride stank capsules, 250 per bottle!! $$&^%!!

Chile, if peppermint could handle this stank, i wouldn't be posting this. Mint is no challenge to the 5000mg garlic, just no contest.

^^I actually use garlic internally and as conditioner/poo, so...

okay, look, i'm trying to keep every hair on my head, at this point they count! Now, a few years ago, this wouldn't be phasing me, i had the equivalent of what felt like 5 weave bags of hair on my head...that's how thick my hair was, even after flatironing, so, trust, i'm keeping every strand in my scalp.

Thanks for the info, maybe i'll return the other bottle...i tried taking it with like 20 oz of water and i think that helped, but i was up all night in the powder room...i'll find a way....

Yeah, what brand are you taking and how much? Garlinase 4000 is one of the most potent supplements and has no odor.

Oh never mind. I see you also use it externally. Don't know much about that.

I can also cosign with this. Kyolic is the best odorless garlic supplement.

I take an oderless one 5,000+ mg (can't remember the brand name). When I took it in the AM I had this problem but since I switch to PM I no longer have the problem and it seems to work better too.

I hear parsley is good for this problem.
