Garlic. Raw.

When I want to use garlic to the max, I chop it up fine and swallow it 
with liquid, at meal time. This gets raw garlic into my system, partly 
broken up without chewing, and with minimal effect on the breath. I do 
it at meal time to make it easier on my stomach.

Of course, to attack the exterior of the gums, you would need some in 
your mouth. I do this sometimes if I have a "cold" or "virus", whatever 
they are called this year.
