Today, there is hardly a person from 5 to 55 years old who has in his pocket, purse, desk drawer, etc. there is no pack of gum. And someone may have deposits. The need to chew something can already arise at a subconscious level.
Instructions
Step 1
Chewing gum really freshens your breath. The more intense her taste, the more she interrupts the odor from the mouth. In case you have a snack with something especially aromatic (dishes containing onions, garlic, other strong odors) or have smoked a cigarette, then with the help of chewing gum it will really be possible to reduce the strength of the smell. If you get bad breath without the participation of fragrant products, then chewing gum will not help here. Check with your dentist to see if this is a gum or dental disease that needs to be treated thoroughly.
Step 2
In the process of chewing gum, increased salivation occurs, all processes associated with the digestion of food are stimulated. Hence, several dangers arise at once. Firstly, if you chew on an empty stomach, then the secreted gastric juice, not finding food in the stomach, will begin to destroy the mucous membrane of the stomach itself. As a result, you can earn both gastritis and a more serious disease - a stomach ulcer. Secondly, if you chew the gum every time after a meal, then you can accustom the stomach to stimulate the production of gastric juice, then without this doping, gastric juice will no longer be released in the proper amount necessary for full digestion of food.
Step 3
Constantly chewing gum can cause addiction, similar to coffee or cigarette addiction. There will be a feeling that you are missing something if the coveted piece of sweet gum is not in your mouth. In fact, when a person chews gum, their attention is lost and their concentration decreases, which ultimately affects the results of their mental processes. So chewing gum is not an assistant for the mind and intelligence.
Step 4
When buying chewing gum, pay attention to the composition of the chewing gum. If the gum contains sugar, then it can cause tooth decay, so it is better to choose a gum that does not contain it.
If the gum contains sweeteners, then keep in mind that not all of them are harmless. Officially recognized pests: Aspartame (E951), Acesulfame K (E950), Cyclamates (E952), sorbitol. All these substitutes, to varying degrees, have a negative effect on digestion, blood composition, and blood vessels.
If the gum contains dye, especially of unnatural colors, it is best to pass by. Pure chemistry, one harm! It is absolutely contraindicated for children.
Let's get acquainted with the composition in more detail. If the chewing gums contain preservatives E102, E129, E171, E132, E322, E414 and E422, then refrain from buying. Also, chewing gum does not inspire confidence, the packaging of which does not contain all the information about the manufacturers, composition and shelf life. Don't risk buying such a product.
Step 5
The duration of chewing gum should not exceed 10-15 minutes. Chewing gum absorbs everything that is around: bacteria, microscopic food debris, mucus, digestive components of saliva, carcinogens (if you smoke). Actually, this is its cleansing effect. All this quickly accumulates inside the gum and comes into close contact. If you continue to chew on this bin, the opposite effect will go.
Step 6
Let's summarize.
Benefits: freshens breath, has some cleansing effect on the oral cavity in the first 10-15 minutes of chewing after eating.
Harm: it has a harmful effect on the stomach, quickly becomes a pollutant from a purifier, can cause psychological dependence with frequent use, it can contain preservatives and dyes that are harmful, and the appearance of a constantly chewing individual will eventually become annoying.
