Recommend a chewing gum
I've been told chewing gum is good as it releases more saliva and saliva helps to break down food quicker and aids in digestion. Which type of gum can I chew that will not mess up my teeth, gives good breath, and is not unhealthy? I mean, what brand, type, etc.?

I was told to stay away from anything mint, so I chew Trident sugarless. The watermellon or the citrus flavor. They are so yummy.

Re: Recommend a chewing gum
I had read that the sugar-free gums are actually worse for you cuz they use artificial sweetners. Anyone know about this?
