Did you guys know that sugar free gum causes stomach bloating? I was just watching some health expert on this show and it does cause your stomach to look bigger than it is. To make this into a discussion do you know why? I do. Take a guess if you don't know. Its like what can we have hay?

I had heard this before. It is because of the sorbitol in it. Sorbitol causes bloating, flatulence and diarrhea. Although I am sure it affects some people worse than others.


myLot reputation of 73/100. dianel (4239)   ranked 33 out of 1,928 in health  3 months ago

Yes the sugar alcohols I never knew this glad I watched that show but Im still going to chew it lol

I still chew it too. As long as you do not chew it constantly or eat lots of sorbitol you should be fine doing it.

Maybe because of the different chemicals in it to make it sweet...Lori

I would have to guess that any gum causes bloating because air is swallowed while chewing. I chew sugar free gum once in awhile but am not real big on constantly having a piece in my mouth. My husband chews it all the time and he has developed a cough as a result. He must be allergic to either the brand or something in the ingredients. When he isn't chewing, he doesn't cough and clear his throat. He changed brands once but think he needs to again.


myLot reputation of 73/100. dianel (4239)   ranked 33 out of 1,928 in health  3 months ago

Really a cough hay? WoW. I havent really noticed anything with me, like you I dont chew alot of it. My hubby though does have to clear his throat constantly he is a welder works with fire so I think thats why.

I have absolutely no idea why Diane. But I find gum chewing in public obnoxious in the extreme. I never chew the stuff and cannot remember when I last tried a piece. I suffer just as much stomach bloat though!! LOL.


myLot reputation of 73/100. dianel (4239)   ranked 33 out of 1,928 in health  3 months ago

LOL you have stomach bloat? I think its fine to chew gum as long as a person does not chomp on it you know what I mean?

Can we eat hay, is that what you are asking? The sort horses eat?

The horses do seem to like it, but I fear they too seem to suffer bloated stomachs and I would imagine it's quite dry and difficult to chew and swallow. I also wouldn't like to follow one around as they are always toileting at the most inappropriate times. Good for the gardeners, especially for the roses.

Have you any floribundas, Diane, or are you a hybrid tea kinda gal?


myLot reputation of 73/100. dianel (4239)   ranked 33 out of 1,928 in health  3 months ago

You can eat hay if you like, I don't like it. LOL. What is floribundas? Or hybird tea? Im sorry alot of things you guys from the UK say I don't understand.

Diane


myLot reputation of 97/100. Scoop_Dogg (857)  3 months ago

It was you that said, "What can we have, hay?" confused

Floribundas and hybrid teas are types of roses. Have you not got such beasts over there, or have you got an Americanism for it.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Scoop_Dogg (857)  3 months ago

P.S. Dr Johnston wouldn't approve of eating hay. Finely chopped with a good dressing of salt and vinegar and....well you know the rest by now. wink


myLot reputation of 97/100. Scoop_Dogg (857)  3 months ago

That's Johnson without the t!

We need to save those for the roses.

I have never heard this before! I chew gum and have never noticed this before either. I think that everyone is different! I am going to guess that it has to do with gas, and bloating!
