_unsure.gif what? gum a low calorie snack? since when did gum become a snack..?

this is what they said:

QUOTE
A 5-calorie stick of gum is less fattening than a bag of chips. And it might even help suppress the appetite.


QUOTE
A television ad that runs during "The Biggest Loser" sums up the new promise with a memorable tag line "Go from 'nice gut' 'to 'nice butt.' " The ad also calls Extra gum the "long-lasting 5-calorie snack to help reveal the new you."


isnt gum bad for your teeth or something? i cant think of gum as a snack.. stubborn.gif

have you guys seen the commercial to this? or heard about this?



edit; if someone can fix the topic title i spelled lose wrong.
i messed up. _unsure.gif

actually, gum makes you gain weight.
when you chew gum, you salivate. so, your digestive system is preparing to break down some food. however, youre obviously not swallowing your gum. yet your stomach begins crunching away and eventually you get hungry. hence, you eat =]

lol shrug.gif my science teacher once told me that

blink.gif was there more detail to it?.... Do you begin a stage of catabolism, by chewing gum? From my understanding, as soon as you start to feel hungry, you've already began catabolism till you're no longer hungry again, which is after the process of catabolism.
