Gum problems...Anny help out there?!


Question: I have a question. Is it bad to swallow chewing gum? I have done it for as long as I have been chewing it (meaning around 10 years). And if it is bad what can happen? And one last question, how long does it take for the gum to reach the other side (meaning from you eat it to it end up in the toilet?

it's a bad habit

its really bad cause it will just stick to stuff, and you will never poo it out!

It will usually pass. But it can lead to a blockage of your colon. Why take the chance and swollow it in the first place ??

im not positive, but i've heard it takes 7 years. It probably isn't a very good habbit, but i don't think you will die. I would stop just to be safe though :)
