Brewer's yeast seems help some people. Also, could possibly succeed with food or fresh basil or thyme, oregano or mint leaves or cinnamon. Cayenne with any these might help. Eating some freshly ground cloves will probably help. Herbs and foods that control parasites will probably help. Vitamins B, especially B-1, might help.
