Hey all,
Seeking quick advice on sugar free chewing gum and whether it's allowed in induction or not.
Chewing gum tends to be 70g carbs per 100, although you don't exactly eat it, the carbs are just for elasticity of the gum.
I've been told that the sweetners in it can cause the body to produce insulin so it's a no. I've also been told that even if this does happen, the amount produced would not be noticeable, and the body produces 100x more through stress/sleep loss etc anyway.
Anyone know what the real deal is? I'd much prefer to eat it to keep my breath fresh!
