  1. lol


  2. Not really, but as it's sugar free the sweetners in it will give you the trots if you chew too much!

  3. No I don't think so.

    Some people are saying that it can actually prevent teeth problems because it makes you produce more saliva which neutralise plaque acid. (as long as it's sugar free..!)

    Have a look at this link - it's quite interesting.

  4. Umm...yes it is, because things like that are jam packed with sugarr?

  5. Not as its sugar free, although there has been recommendations to not always chew on an empty stomach as chewing aids digestion and also helps create more stomach acid so may damage the stomach over time.

  6. No gum is good for your teeth.... it starts the digestive prosses, and gets digestive fluids running in your mouth and causes extra acid in your mouth and will rot the enaml on your teeth....  also excessive chewing will lead to TMJ ( tight mandibular joint )  I know cause I have it !!!!

  7. No, apart from jaw ache!

  8. it all depends on how much u have, same with anything u eat or drink. Remember on news ages ago saying that it increases the brain receptors or something ( makes u use your brain more). Not to sure  

  9. Hi i think its all bad for you ,Its better for your teeth.

  10. No,

    But If You Eat Like A Packet A Day Then YEs x  

  11. A while ago it was reported that chewing gum caused stomach cancer. I asked a Doctor I worked for if it was true. He said that it was. When I asked him why he said that it causes contractions of the muscles of the stomach. How that causes cancer I don't know but it's what he said.

  12. YES it is Bad for you. I used to chew a couple gums a days. Instead of making your mouth fresh, it made my mouth smell bad. and after a while it will actually make ur mouth Dry.


  13. yes

  14. Chewing gum fools your tummy into thinking food is on its way therefore making you hungry. You eat more, put on weight and then get obese, just look at premiership football managers!

  15. No. And even eating a whole pack a day is not bad for you, but I wouldnt do it daily. It doesnt sound very healthy. I used to chew Wrigleys, now I only chew Extra Ice! Mmm...

  16. i think everything in moderation is good
