Regarding the garlic odour...

I was just reading an old cookbook of mine which has Asian and Macrobiotic food recipes in it and there's a whole section on herbs and spices.

It says Cardamon can help reduce the smell of garlic.

"Best purchased when still in the pod. Remove the seeds and grind as required to get maximum flavour and aroma.
Therapeutic uses include nausea, flatulence and weak appetities. It also helps reduce the smell of garlic and is reputed to 'clear the mind'. A few crushed seeds may be used to flavour teas." - Australian Wellbeing Cookbook.

Regarding the fenugreek, book says you can also sprout the seeds...

Fenugreek, "When eaten regularly, there is a side effect - you develop a distinct curry-like body odour!" -
