Garlic Tablets

[jakep]

I have been taking Natures Best Garlic 1400mg (one tab) for about two weeks now. I was told they would help to prevent insect bites. I can react very badly when bitten.
Within an hour of taking the tablet I am burping Garlic for ages and it's all I can taste.
Does anyone have recommendations for a supplement that doesn't do this please.
Off now to do gardening for a friend. Won't get bitten, it's drizzling!

Never mind garlic tablets. Chew half a clove of raw garlic. After a couple of months the odour disappears. I have never had a cold in 12 years since I started this.

If I were you, I'd keep on with the tablets. If they don't keep the mozzies away, at least they'll put off the vampires.
