PUR Gum | Aspartame Free Chewing Gum | 100% Xylitol | Natural Bubblegum Flavored Gum, 55 Pieces (Pack of 6)

My mouth gets dry when I run — I’m a mouth breather — so I always stick in some gum before I start. Pur peppermint has been my gum of choice recently, and here’s why. It’s a 5K gum. For about three miles it keeps me hydrated — not with constant chewing or anything, just hanging out in my mouth with an occasional munch here and there when needed — and it has a good consistency and texture. Unlike other gums, it doesn’t start falling apart with all the air coming in or lack of use. But at the three-mile mark, it’s time for another piece.This works well for me. The flavor is good, and it stimulates enough saliva to keep me going until I can stop and properly hydrate. The other flavors don’t work at all. Peppermint is the winner for my needs.There’s more gum in this bag than I expected — a lot of miles — and the price is definitely reasonable for the benefits.

The worst thing about PUR gum is really the only bad thing about it! It can be hard to find!I've been seeking out snacks, foods, gum and mints that are free of artificial colors, sweeteners, and the other poisons the United States still allows in its food. The U.S. is far behind other places like the EU and our food is chock full of poison. It's one big science experiment and we're the guinea pigs! At this point, it's common knowledge that the artificial colors and sweeteners are poison, yet they are in everything. Which makes one really start to wonder if the conspiracy folks aren't absolutely right!In any case, this gum smacks! It's not going to last as long as the poisoned gum you get at the store that's loaded with a mix of sweeteners, artificial colors, BHT and other preservatives and carcinogens.But for something not made of poison, the gum does the trick! I personally like the flavors and am satisfied with how long it lasts.It's helped me get away from nicotine use and it is fantastic for after meals. I found this product when I worked in health food stores. I was not paid or compensated in any way and received no free product.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Well I wanted to try some gum that’s good for my gum! And saw the review that it’s anti cavity ! Wish the flavor stayed a more longer. Love the few seconds crunch.Ingredients:xylitol

I love this gum and I wish I could get more of it. It taste fresh. Its not super sticky and gross. Easy to chew. They look like normal pieces of gum and not poor quality. The STRONG flavor doesn't stay very long is the only "bad" thing about this gum.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Ad said they work well for diabetics w dry mouth & throat. They work for a short time.

This gum tastes really good, without a funny/gross aftertaste. I like how it’s much healthier than most gum, which makes the price tag worth it. The flavor doesn’t last too long, but it lasts as long as I need it (maybe 30 minutes or more). The texture is great, pretty close to most gum. I would say it’s only a little more hard than regular gum. I love it so much and would definitely recommend!

Pur gum is healthier as far as sweetener goes (it contains xylitol rather than aspartame or corn syrup), and the flavors are fine. However, just like all the less healthy chewing gums, Pur contains something called “gum base”. Gum base is typically composed of various emulsifiers such as polysorbate 80, carrageenan, maltodextrin, or xanthan gum—each of which can cause health problems. Because I know that there are safer and more natural alternatives, I emailed Pur to ask if their chewing gums contain any of these aforementioned ingredients, but they (politely) refused to answer, saying that their formula is proprietary. Since they wouldn’t tell me that their products *don’t* contain these emulsifiers, I can’t recommend them.

Listen, who doesn’t want some clean non aspartame gum. Our family has been ordering this brand for years. No need to ever buy another brand. Have tried all flavours and all are great, however, younger kids probably won’t like cinnamon. My teenagers favourite is the bubble gum. Long lasting flavours. All make great bubbles. Healthy choice overall.
