You chew it. You stretch it. You blow it. And, be honest, sometimes you stick it on things. But what happens to your body when you swallow chewing gum? And, not just once but all the time? If you always swallow your gum, could it plug up your body? Is it true that it could kill you? What does chewing gum do to your digestive system? Could it cause sepsis? Are your intestines in danger? How is the sapodilla tree related to chewing gum?
