Stevia Gum - The Alternative to Traditional Gum

Stevia chewing gum is the healthy alternative to traditional over the counter chewing gum.  When looking at the traditional and “sugar free” gums on the market, individuals have become increasingly concerned about the effects of the sugars used to sweeten the chewing gum.  Many of the gums on the market today are produced using synthetic polymers, styrene butadiene rubbers, and polyvinyl acetate. Consequently, many of the gums sold commercially today are composed of 60% sugar, 20% corn syrup, and 20% actual gum material. Today’s chewing and bubble gums are predominantly sugar by volume, as compared to the other components. Seventy to eighty percent of most gums on the market today are sheer vehicles for sugar, considered by some to be the number one drug on the planet.

Why not choose a gum that uses all natural stevia as an alternative to the traditional sweeteners?  Using a stevia based chewing provides a healthy, calorie free and natural alternative to sugar based gums.  Though there have been no conclusive studies related to stevia chewing gum, since there is no sugar, it may aid in weight loss, reduce dental cavities, decrease plaque, and prevent emerging cavities from fully forming.
