Study: Chewing Gum For 15 Minutes Eases Stress
Dear Reader,
Stress is one of those things all of us experience, now there's some new research on a coping strategy that many of us can use - chewing gum. A study appearing in the Journal of Prosthodontic Research by Japanese researchers has found that chewing gum for around 15 minutes can ease stress. This finding adds to a growing body of work that's showing gum chewing to be a stress relief technique that really works.
In truth, humans have been finding things to chew on from our earliest
beginnings. The first real gum, as we know it, was created in the 1800s from a kind of rubber called chicle. Today's research projects are suggesting that these ancient people might have known something about handling stress.
The current research on gum chewing and stress included 14 healthy male subjects who were asked to do arithmetic calculations for 30 minutes in order to build their stress levels. This was followed by chewing gum for periods of 5, 10 or 15 minutes or not at all.
Every participant was assigned to each of the chewing conditions on different days. The team collected saliva samples before and after the arithmetic was done, while also measuring subjects' cortisol levels.
Indeed cortisol levels, known to be a biological measure of stress, dropped after prolonged gum chewing. It seems that chewing time might impact the reaction of the endocrine system to stress, and continuous chewing is an effective way to cut that stress.
There was no
difference in salivary alpha amylase action for the gum chewing conditions, but there was a large drop in cortisol levels at 15 minutes of gum chewing when compared to 5 minutes. What sets this study apart from earlier work is that those used blood collection instead of the salivary markers to measure stress, and as anyone knows, drawing blood can (and does) induce stress.

Study: Chewing Gum For 15 Minutes Eases Stress Continued...
Incidentally, the gum used in the research was tasteless, supplied by a South
Korean company. Flavored gum appears to increase arousal in the brain and also
stimulates our senses of smell, taste and touch. As your dentist will agree,
sugar free gums are the better choices as they have fewer calories and, of course,
sugar. These types of gums help keep teeth clean, keep your breath fresh and
your mouth less prone to cavities.
There have been earlier studies that link gum chewing to reduced stress. In three projects appearing in the journal Appetite and funded by gum maker Wrigley, gum chewing was found to improve measures of stress and bring a more positive mood. While chewing gum would not take stress away, it certainly makes it more manageable for many people, accounting for about a 10% change.
Gum chewing might also cut symptoms that come as part of depression. Daytime tiredness might also be eased by
chewing a piece of gum, though there are also studies that link too much gum chewing with headaches in both children and teens. It's also important to understand that chewing gum is not an appetite suppressant. Mint flavored gum might even keep you from finding healthier foods (like fruits) appealing.
Also important to keep in mind, when you chew gum as a stress release, you might be chewing a bit too vigorously. That can cause jaw issues like fatigue and soreness and might even trigger
painful TMJ. Go easy, chew for a time, but if you do notice soreness or pain, stop and try a different approach to managing stress instead.
To your good health,
