Odorless garlic supplements?

Star73 · 04-17-2012, 12:44 PM

I just started these a couple of days ago. I didn't tell my DD I had started them and this morning she says "You smell like salsa" She wasn't criticising me, just making an observation

I about fell out laughing. I've never been told I smell like salsa before

If they are odorless, I'm assuming that just means until released huh? What kind should I take so I don't smell like salsa?

Nobody here takes garlic??? Or maybe you just don't smell like salsa?

A few months back, I bought some on a bogo deal, but only used them for a couple of days because of possible interaction with other meds I take, so sorry can't help you much. I ust thought I'd chime in that I did try them. As much garlic as I normally eat I probably smell like garlic anyway, I wish. I actually wanted to smell more like garlic to keep the mosquitos away since I am a magnet for them.

Maybe that will be a good side effect for me. I asked her today if I smelled like salsa and she said no. Maybe the body scrub worked

Thanks for chiming in

Did you tell her you'd been salsa dancing earlier that day?

I've seen some advertised as odorless, but it seems like if they would have to react in your body differently and/or include different ingredients, so I'd wonder if they were as effective.

Probably drinking a lot of water would help counteract some of it?

I think I've figured out what made me smell like "salsa" that morning

A combination of the garlic pills and some very spicy chicken I had the night before. I've been taking the pills since then and I've asked her if I smell like that and she says no
