Answers:
I wouldn't say it is "good" for you!. Of course TV commercials will try and lead you to believe that, they are trying to sell you gum!
When you chew gum your body perceives that food will eventually be coming to your stomach!. Your stomach releases acids in anticipation of this, and then the food never comes, so you have an abundance of acid hanging out in your stomach!. This can lead to stomach disorders!. Plus, you overwork your jaw, can lead to jaw (aka TMJ) issues!. You would do better to eat a piece of cheese to neutralize acids in your mouth!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Depends on the gum you chew!.
Sugar free is best!.!.!.!. Anything with sugar can cause tooth decay, but sugar free can actually be *good* for you because the excess salvia produced by chewing naturally cleanses your teeth & gums!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Gum containing sugar promotes cavities!. Sugar free gum is said to be good for dental hygiene and the health of your gums!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
