What brand of gum lasts longest?

I have to say that Wrigley's Juicy Fruit or Big Red have the longest lasting flavors. Also, you get the best value by getting packs of gum that have individually wrapped sticks. The packaging that has individual "cells" for each little block of gum covered with aluminum foil is very costly and doesn't contain very much gum. ill say orbit cause a girl did a project on long lasting gum but to me Wrigleys Winterfresh buble yum also last long I would have to say that Bubbilicious has the longest-lasting gum flavor.

It doesn't. No scientific research indicates that chewing gum has even an indirect link to increased intelligence. Gum chewing is, however, a well-documented and much celebrated tool in the battle to stop smoking. Additionally, the effort exerted by you facial muscles is thought by some to help reduce double chins.

Further, gum manufacturers point to the fact that most dentists agree that the saliva generated from chewing gum helps to prevent gum disease and fight cavities. If we stretch the imagination, it is arguable that the money saved by not getting fillings for bad teeth could instead be invested in the child's education, which would hopefully make them smarter. But that's a feeble argument at best.

What does it mean when your chewing gum and it sticks to your teeth?

When chewing gum sticks to your teeth, it is typically due to the gum's sticky texture and the presence of sugar or artificial sweeteners in the gum. The sticky nature of the gum allows it to adhere to the enamel of your teeth, causing it to get stuck. To remove gum from your teeth, you can try gently pulling it off or using a dental floss or toothpick to carefully dislodge it. It is important to be cautious when removing gum from your teeth to avoid causing damage to the enamel or gums.

Why does chewing gum make you more hungry?

Chewing is the first step in digestion. While you chew, salivary glands start producing saliva because they are trying to break down the "food" since your body doesn't know the difference between chewing gum and food. This also triggers your stomach to produce

more acid in preparation to break down the "food" and your stomach expands, giving more space for the "food". This makes you hungry because your body is ready for digestion.
