Chewing Gum makes you fit and smarter but The sugars and sweetness in chewing gum that you absorb can make you fat. The suger free gum is the best for you and makes you smarter then the added surger gum.

Answer 2

Chewing gum can improve memory. It was found that people who chewed throughout tests of both long-term and short-term memory produced significantly better scores than people who did not. But gum-chewing did not boost memory-linked reaction times, used as a measure of attention. "These results provide the first evidence that chewing gum can improve long-term and working memory," says Andrew Scholey of the University of Northumbria in Newcastle, UK. "There are a number of potential explanations - but they are all very speculative."
chewing gum wont improve your test results! but.. it can help with stress, like a calming technique!

Answer 3

It actually DOES help!!!! Gum can help you calm down. If you are like me, you probably get nervous REALLY BADLY!!!! Gum is my solution but I am now allowed to chew it in school, so I sneak it.

It also helps you concentrate and improves your memory. It will help you before a test. With it improving your memory, you will also have better chances getting a 100% on that A.R test.

I also talk A LOT during class and gum helps me talk less so others can concentrate during class.

Answer 4

gum helps you concentrate because when you are a bit distracted, it helps your brain cells stay relaxed and a bit more focused on what you are doing. A lot of students chew gum while taking important tests. its not just chewing gum that will help, tapping a pencil, tapping your foot, and even listening to soft music will help you concentrate too!

Answer 5

Chewing gum makes you neither smart nor dumb. It's just chewing. Some people feel more alert if they're doing something besides just sitting there thinking, and so they believe gum is what makes them alert, but it's just the act of chewing. If you have a very sugary gum, it can give you a very short "sugar high," but that only lasts a few minutes and then you crash, so that's not really worth it - use sugar-free gum to prevent gaining weight and getting cavities.
