About Chewing gum
Chewing gum is a popular confectionery enjoyed worldwide, originating from ancient practices of chewing natural tree resins. Modern chewing gum typically contains a synthetic gum base, sweeteners (sugar or sugar substitutes), flavorings, and softening agents. While it is not categorized as a food, gum is often appreciated for its ability to freshen breath, reduce stress, and improve focus. Sugar-free varieties are considered a healthier option, as they may help prevent tooth decay by stimulating saliva production, which neutralizes harmful acids and washes away food particles. However, excessive chewing can strain jaw muscles or lead to digestive discomfort for sensitive individuals. Additionally, gum with added sugars contributes to excess calorie intake and is less beneficial for oral health. Though low in nutritional value, chewing gum remains a common habit for its sensory appeal and potential oral health benefits.
