Sugar alcohols in gum bad while cutting?

[KingMike]

Have not really paid attention but I have been chewing 8-10 sticks of extra bubble gum a day. 20 G sugar alcohols. Any effects? I do very low carb (only pwo)

[KingMike]

My bad, 1 gram per stick so thats 8-10 grams a day

[speedtraining]

was wondering that my self.

[sooners04]

I doubt a stick here and there would be harmful. I chew about 10 a over the course of a day also and don't see it having an effect either way.

You actually burn calories while chewing gum all day, so my guess is it would even itself out.

Most of my cardio consists of chewing gum...

I chew gum all day everyday, I have had this habit for atleast 10 years. Personally I have to chew gum while lifting, if I dont I feel like I am going to pass out and get dizzy. I find when I chew gum this side effects almost completely subside.

When you chew gum, you burn an extra 11 calories an hour. Chew gum all day, that means you are burning almost 100 calories a day from it, over 2 weeks, thats 1 pound of fat

[IBdmfkr]

hmm.. Don't think it would be a lb of fat every two weeks from gum chewing lol.. I'm pretty sure you'd be burning carbs/excessive calories. That'd be nice though.

[bcap]

Comon are you serious? You mean every calorie i burn isn't fat? DAMN!

Haha yeah true that

[mitch911]

chewing gum all day makes it easy to stick to diets..i buy in bulk with lots of flavours...does the job when ppl around u are eating chips and junk while watchin a movie or tv

[suckysucky]

It's better then smoking. I like to chew gum when i work out so i do not grind my teeth when i lift.

chew the gum for the first minute or so, dont swallow anything, then spit out the flavour, most the sugar is gonna be out by then if ur THAT worried.

either way, im assuming gum is minus calories..meaning you burn more than you consume just by chewing it.
