Is it OK to eat chewing gum every day? Is it OK to eat chewing gum regularly?

Not good, a lot of chewing will damage your teeth, especially a lot of saliva will be taken away, special tip: it is the taste of mint, chewing often will damage the oral mucosa, because he is corrosive. And I think that chewing a lot often will make your face bigger!

Be careful! So I think eating less is a second! About xylitol Because of its effect on preventing tooth decay, xylitol is being recognized by more and more consumers, and some people even do not buy non-xylitol-containing chewing gum.

However, some experts have recently pointed out that the efficacy of xylitol is exaggerated, and there are misunderstandings in its use, excessive consumption will be ***, and xylitol is contraindicated for people suffering from insulin-induced hypoglycemia. Experts point out that excessive intake of xylitol can cause health problems, such as diarrhea and obesity. Although the content of xylitol in chewing gum is small and basically does not affect the human body, consumer associations and experts still believe that domestic production and sales enterprises should label their possible adverse reactions on xylitol packaging to warn consumers.

Liu Qi, a licensed Chinese pharmacist at Tiantianhao Pharmacy, said that xylitol is a nutritional drug extracted from plants, which can supplement calories and improve blood sugar metabolism in the human body. At present, there are not many xylitol drugs on the market in Hangzhou, and only one xylitol powder is found, which is the best and nutritional medicine for diabetes and hepatitis. However, if xylitol is consumed in excess, it will also produce some ***, such as causing bowel sounds, diarrhea, obesity, etc.

In particular, consumers should be aware that xylitol is contraindicated for those suffering from insulin-induced hypoglycemia. Pharmacist Liu Qi said that in European and American countries, foods that generally contain xylitol will be marked on the label with consumption tips such as "excessive intake may cause diarrhea". The reporter saw in several supermarkets yesterday that chewing gum products containing xylitol did not have corresponding warnings on the outer packaging.

Recently, some manufacturers claim that the xylitol chewing gum they produce can not only prevent tooth decay, but even repair tooth decay. Is xylitol really such a god? Physician Xiang Lixin, director of the Department of Stomatology of Zhejiang Hospital, said that xylitol is not easy to be fermented by microorganisms to produce acidic substances, so it can reduce the production of tartar and caries, and does have a certain effect on the prevention of dental caries.

Chewing gum contains xylitol, which can only reduce the possibility of tooth decay, and people who already have tooth decay cannot rely on chewing gum to play a leading role. At best, people who eat xylitol regularly are less likely to get tooth decay than people who eat sucrose regularly. In addition, there is a misconception about xylitol, some people think that the higher the xylitol content, the better the anti-caries effect, but in fact, the amount of xylitol in chewing gum does not affect the anti-caries effect.

Dr. Xiang reminds consumers that the most important thing to protect their teeth is to rinse their mouths frequently, master the correct brushing methods, and use health-care medicine toothpaste as much as possible. If you have dental disease, you must go to the hospital in time, and if you don't have dental disease, it is best to go to the oral medicine once every six months, which is the most effective way to prevent dental caries.

It's not good, if you eat too much gum, it will cause cancer.

Chewing gum is not a matter of eating it well or not often, but it is a matter of how long it takes to chew gum to affect your health. In general, chewing gum should not take more than 3 minutes. Because after chewing gum for more than 3 minutes, its colloids begin to decompose under the catalytic action of enzymes in oral saliva, and use gastric acid for digestion, until excessive gastric acid is secreted.

Usually chewing gum for too long is common symptoms such as nausea, dry mouth, feeling hungry, etc.

Therefore, it is not bad to eat chewing gum, but it depends on the time of eating chewing gum.

Do not chew gum for more than 15 minutes, and people with stomach problems should not chew too much gum. Because chewing gum for a long time will reflexively secrete a large amount of stomach acid. Especially in the fasting state, not only will there be symptoms such as nausea, loss of appetite, and acid reflux, but it may also aggravate stomach problems in the long run.
