Heart disease and chewing gum

Somebody told me that chewing gum can give you heart disease. Can somebody explain this to me?

Doubt it. Chewing gum can give you headaches, though, because of the repetitive chewing motion.

I did a google search and the best it came up with was that peridontal disease is linked to heart disease. It also came up with a lot of hits for cigarette-replacing chewing gum.

In a word, no. We can not explain this to you.

Sugar-free chewing gum is good for your teeth, because it releases spittle which has natural antibodies in it to kill all the bugs. However because of the sweeteners if you have too much it can also give you diarrhoea - neither of which is heart disease. ;)
