Chewing Gum: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers a variety of chewing gums, including sugar-free and flavoured options. When choosing chewing gum, it's helpful to check the ingredients list. Look for sweeteners like xylitol, sorbitol, or mannitol, which are commonly used in sugar-free varieties. The ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first ingredients are the most abundant. For chewing gum, the primary ingredients are typically sweeteners, gum base, flavourings, and humectants. While chewing gum itself is not a significant source of nutrients like fibre or protein, some products may contain added ingredients. The NHS Eatwell Guide recommends limiting free sugars. Sugar-free chewing gum does not contribute to tooth decay and can help neutralise plaque acids after eating and drinking. Salt content in chewing gum is generally very low and not a primary nutritional consideration. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
