5. Artificial sweeteners are linked to cancer
Like earlier said, it makes no difference whether your gum contains sugar or not. This is because sugar-free gum has artificial sweeteners which are usually used to replace sugar. The most common one is aspartame which is a harmful ingredient that has been linked to cancers, brain tumours, weight gain and birth defects.
6. It can result in farting
Chewing gum allows too much air into your body. This can result in bloating which is why you fart very often.
7. It doesn’t prevent bad breath
Bad breath is a symptom of digestive problems or excessive tooth decay. You should deal with the root cause of the problem rather than using chewing gum to hide it. You will realize that even if you stop chewing it, the halitosis still remains.
