Is Chewing Gum A Laxative? by msharib86(f): 6:44am On Feb 04, 2022
It's important to remember that chewing gum can help you lose weight by reducing calorie intake and avoiding unhealthy snacking.

Sorbitol is a low-calorie sweetener that is included in most sugar-free chewing gums.

Sugar alcohol sorbitol is a laxative because it is poorly absorbed by the small intestine and serves as a Laxative gum

Does chewing gum have any benefits?

Keep your teeth healthy As long as it’s sugarless, chewing gum for 20 minutes after you eat can help protect your teeth by removing food debris and increasing your saliva flow. Your saliva strengthens your tooth enamel because it carries phosphate and calcium.
