Re: Can u chew sugarless gum?
I think it's fine & chew it all the time. You're not really eating it so the exposure is very minimal

Re: Can u chew sugarless gum?
My Dr. actually told me not to, like, saw me chewing it and said "is that sugar free? You can't have that!" but I chew a peice here and there. I know other girls Dr's have said that its such a minimal amount it should be OK.

Re: Can u chew sugarless gum?
I heard that its better to chew sugarless gum and consume sugarless products...I mean come on how bad can a piece of gum once a day be for you...
I'm actually getting really annoyed with all the things that they say you can and cannot have...I eat EVERYTHING in moderation...

I know. He definitely has the "you never know" mentality...like since no studies have proved this or that I may want to avoid certain things just be on the safe side. I pick and choose what I want to follow!

Re: Can u chew sugarless gum?
I asked my Dr about sugarless stuff, hot dogs, cold cuts....all the stuff we worry about. He said everything in moderation except of course alcohol, drugs and tobacco.

I'm not a big gum person- but I've laid off all artificial sweeteners.

I've posted on this recently, and that's what my doctor said. I chew maybe a piece every day or every other day. He wasn't concerned.
