Chewing gum is often used for weight loss. Experts conducted a small analysis and told whether this method helps to suppress appetite.

Chewing gum will not help burn calories, as happens with physical exertion, but it can satisfy hunger and improve digestive processes. “Chewing gum allows you to “trick” the brain, sending a signal that the meal is over. “You can replace snacks with it throughout the day,” PlanetToday quotes Carrie Hans, author of the book “Small Change Diets.” Scientists conducted a study and found that chewing gum lovers reduce the amount of food consumed by 40% and are more likely to refuse sweets. When choosing a “gum” you should follow several rules: choose a sugar-free product that helps improve the condition of the oral cavity, do not consume more than six pieces per day, replace chewing gum with fruit.
