How do you get rid of bad breath from eating onions, garlic, spicy foods?

Aside from the brushing of teeth, gargling with mouthwash and flossing, any other remedies?

Keep well hydrated, drink lots and lots of water. In addition to brushing teeth and flossing you should also brush your tongue.

Yes, I have heard of that also,keep well hydrated and brushing your tongue.
Also your dentist sells a product line called BreathRx.
I use it. It has the mouth wash , toothpaste and tongue gel also mints and gum.
Also come`s with a tongue scraper.
You put the gel on your tongue then scrape off with a plastic strip.
It works !
