We don't need more medical/pharmaceutical waste. Couldn't a vibration plate machine do the same thing plus the other benefits from it's use?ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articl...

I found that sugar free gum or sugar free honey flavored cough drops act as a laxative if you take throughout the day.

My drooling was so bad that the above was my only way of curbing. I noticed that my bowel movements increased to two or three daily while taking.

the act of chewing increases your digestive enzymes. But sugar free gum can raise your insulin because your body thinks food is coming and thinks it will be sweet bc your mouth is sensing sweetness.

Depends on the sweetener.

Good point. Do you know which sweeteners this does not apply to? But the act of just chewing does increase digestive enzymes (good) but can (according to Dr. Boz) increase insulin. She referenced personal experience and patience experiencing this.
