Default chewin gum

Yo. whats the scoop on chewin gum.

I heard it keeps your digestive system workin, thus you burn what youve got stored in your stomach.

Can some1 enlighten me, cause i usually chew after breakfast and dinner hoping that it actually does have an effect.

It may slightly raise your metabolism, but not to any significant degree.

I've heard that it chronically elevates your insulin, since chewing and saliva production (this part is right, at least) stimulate its release.

I used to chew it constantly, 24-fucking-7, for a few years, maybe between 13 and 15, around then

I don't give a rats ass about wrinkles since I'm male.
Much to the contradiction of my dad who has injected Botox into his face
I chew whenever I don't do anything physically straining. I'm addicted to it ever since I quit smoking/snus.

I heard chewing gum gives you gas, because your swallowing more air.

The process of chewing without swallowing makes me hungry.
