Chew Gum To Help With Weight Loss
A recent study, done under a grant supported by the Wrigley Science Institute, which was
presented by researchers from the Pennington Biomedical Research Center and Louisiana State University showed that chewing gum may help you with your weight loss.
In this study participants were given lunch and then chewed Extra gum 3 times hourly for 15 minutes. After those 3 hours the participants were given a variety of snacks and the gum chewers consumed 40-60 less calories from those snacks then the non-gum chewers.
It was also reported that when the participants chewed gum, on average, they reported significantly decreased
feelings of hunger and cravings for something sweet. In addition, the
gum chewers felt they maintained energy levels throughout the afternoon
and also felt significantly less drowsy at hours two and three before
the afternoon snack.
There are some who say that gum chewing is not so great to help you get a flat tummy. This is because you take in a lot of air when you chew and that can cause stomach bloating, but through some trial and error you will be able to see if this habit is one you want to take on.
