What is bad about gum?
Thats what tons of people ask me! Well, what can happen is when the sugar in the gum mixes with the saliva, it goes down to the stomach. The Saliva and Sugar make a chemical that help dissolve food in your stomach. BUT, if there is no food to digest in your stomach, the chemical starts to digest your stomach lineng. Plus, if you swallow gum it takes 7 DAYS to digest it... be careful with gum!
