Product Information

Mastication under stressful conditions prevents stress-induced ulcer formation in the stomach [ 4, 22– 24], spatial cognitive deficits [ 25, 26], anxiety-like behavior [ 35], and osteoporosis [ 27]. Onishi et al. [ 36] reported that maternal chewing during prenatal stress prevents prenatal stress-induced learning deficits in the adult offspring. Several studies have demonstrated that chewing attenuates stress-induced functional and morphologic changes in the hippocampus [ 25, 36– 40]. Contestants from The Biggest Loser chew gum regularly because multiple studies have shown it can help cut calories throughout their day, as noted by WebMD.

The acid eats away at the hard enamel surface of your teeth, a process that creates holes in the enamel and pathways for bacteria to infect your tooth’s dentin layer and pulpal tissues. Eventually, as your tooth decays, it may require a root canal to save it. For some reason gum is one of those things that gets a lot of air time in public discourse. You may have heard that it helps you concentrate or that if you swallow it you’ll have gum in your stomach for five years. Chewing Gum Associated With Enhanced Bowel Recovery After Colon Surgery".

How does chewing during stress-inducing conditions suppress the autonomic nervous system and HPA axis? We suggest that stress-coping activities such as chewing engage the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and the right central nucleus of amygdala neuronal activity asymmetrically [ 86]. The mPFC is critically involved in the regulation of stress-induced physiologic and behavioral responses [ 87– 90]. Dopamine mainly controls the stress-related actions of the mPFC [ 91, 92]. Mice and rats exposed to an inescapable stress will chew on an inedible material, such as aluminum foil or cardboard, in the cage [ 76, 93]. Under inescapable stress conditions, chewing suppresses increases in plasma corticosterone [ 94]. Moreover, chewing also attenuates stress-related dopamine utilization preferentially within the mPFC [ 93]. Chewing-induced suppression of mPFC dopamine utilization is largely confined to the right hemisphere [ 93]. Together, these observations suggest a particularly important role for the right mPFC in stress-coping behavior. Chewing leads to an increase in fos-immunoreactivity that is selective for the right mPFC and a decrease in fos-immunoreactivity that is selective for the central nucleus of the right amygdala, a region that may regulate dopamine, both of which are implicated in regulating dopamine utilization in the mPFC, particularly under stress-inducing conditions [ 94– 96]. In addition, chewing during stress-inducing conditions also attenuates the stress-induced release of noradrenaline in the amygdala [ 4, 22, 63]. Therefore chewing-induced changes in catecholamines in the mPFC and right central nucleus of the amygdala play an important role in stress-coping behavior. For example, gum chewing triggers the production of saliva, which improves oral health by clearing out lingering bits of food and neutralizing the acids produced by the bacteria in your mouth.

Stress is a physiologic and psychologic response to environmental changes and noxious stimuli. Chronic stress negatively affects physical and mental health [ 1– 3], ultimately leading to disease [ 4– 8]. Stress-related diseases are prevalent worldwide. Stress activates the neuroendocrine system via the autonomic system and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which leads to the release of corticosteroids and hormones [ 9, 10]. Animal studies have suggested that aspartame is a chemical carcinogen in rodents and that prenatal exposure to aspartame increases cancer risk in rodent offspring ( 12).
