Like many, I adore foods strong in garlic, but as a trainer and speaker, the last thing I want is to turn up at a client’s business the next day with “garlic breath”. This means I have to give up eating some of my favourite foods sometimes.

A new study may show there is a solution to the problem.

Apparently simply drinking milk before or while eating those wonderful foods will reduce the garlic coming out in our breathes.
