A.D.A. Recommend Chewing Gum

Latest News

Earlier this month I wrote 2 posts: A Warning for Migraine and Depression Sufferers and Fluoride the Big Lie, not expecting to visit the subjects again so soon. I feel though, that I need to bring the latest developments to our readers attention, because without the most up-to-date information we are all at a disadvantage, and I want everyone to be fore-warned.

ada_seal.gifThis is a direct quote from the American Dental association:

Look for the ADA seal - your assurance that the product has been objectively evaluated for safety and effectiveness by an independent body of scientific experts, the ADA Council of Scientific Affairs.

This looks good doesn’t it? You would feel assured from reading this statement that the ADA have your best interests at heart, and you are totally safe in purchasing any product that has this seal of approval.

Aspartame Symptoms

This is just a quick reminder of some of the symptoms that can result from consuming the product that they are so proud of, Wrigley’s sugar free gum, containing: Aspartame or Neotame and an artificial sweetener that I hadn’t come across before: Mannitol.

headaches, nausea, vertigo, insomnia, numbness, blurred vision, blindness and other eye problems, memory loss, slurred speech, depression, personality changes, hyperactivity, stomach disorders, seizures, skin lesions, rashes, anxiety attacks, muscle cramping and joint pain, loss of energy, symptoms mimicking heart attacks, hearing loss and ear ringing, and loss or change of taste.

Chewing Gum

The largest U.S. dentist group now says gum can be good for yousugarfreegums.jpg, as long as it is sugar free. And the only sugar free gum that is good for your teeth is Wrigley’s : Orbit, Extra and Eclipse….based on studies funded, (they say partially) by the maker of Wrigley gums, Chicago-based Wm. Wrigley Jr. Co.

The ADA said its independent review of the studies confirms that those 3 gums have been shown to help prevent cavities, reduce plaque and strengthen teeth.

An ADA quote:

studies submitted by Wrigley showed that chewing those gum products for 20 minutes 3 times a day after meals increases saliva production. Saliva, the ADAfluorideaffectedteeth.jpg said, helps neutralize and wash away plaque acid and bathes the teeth in minerals such as calcium, phosphate and Fluoride, which are known to strengthen tooth enamel and help prevent cavities.

Where Did the Fluoride Come From?

Unless the ADA spokesperson made a mistake. and didn’t mean to say Fluoride, because as we know Fluoride isn’t produced by the body, then we can only assume that Fluoride is being added to the gum at some point in production.

They then go on to recommend brushing the teeth twice a day with Fluoride Toothpaste. Oh, and of course seeing your dentist regularly for “Optimal Oral Health.”

Independent Research

Having found out that the ADA are happy to endorse a product because the company have funded “independent research”, and still cling to spurious data from those who want to poison the population with Fluoride, I thought it best to research this sugar substitute called Mannitol.

Why Mannitol?

We know from research done by Adolf Hitler’s scientists that the real reason behind water fluoridation is to reduce the resistance of the masses to domination, control and loss of liberties, and so it didn’t take me long to find the reason that sugar free products are using Mannitol.

Mannitol can be used to open the blood-brain barrier by temporarily shrinking the tightly coupled endothelial cells that make up the barrier. this makes Mannitol indispensable for delivering various drugs directly to the brain (e.g. in the treatment of Alzheimers disease)

One thing that people have to understand
is the ADA is a self serving trade Union
Protecting it own interest (ASS) and NOT yours.
They have and are protecting the use of mercury (amalgam fillings) and Fluoride, two very harmful items and they taught them as “safe and effective” only to keep the class action lawsuits of their asses.
Just watch and see they are going to let the Dentist hang when people wakeup and see the shame that is being portrayed.
P.S. we have been using Spry™ Sugar-Free Chewing Gum, sweetened with all-natural xylitol,

Hi lanew,
I had no idea xylitol was good for cat’s teeth (which I shall try) or poisonous for dogs. A dog must not eat anything with it in.

Wrigley’s are being ‘clever’ by including xylitol in their Orbit gum, so claiming it beneficial for teeth, which is allowed in law.

We still have the problem of fluoride being present in chewing gums, as it only takes fluoridated water in manufacture to achieve this.

That’s is why we fought so hard in our area to keep fluoride out, so at least that we ( our family ) can know and we try to do is by local, its fluoride free, or at least only containing the real Natural Calcium fluoride not
Fluorosilicic Acid

Hi lanew,

You are indeed fortunate to have managed to keep your water supply free from the ‘F’ word.

Most counties in the UK have succumbed to government persuasion and propaganda.

My dentist and his groups are kind to me as I am into the Natural Things. I do not let them fluoride my teeth or use amalgam to fill a cavity. The head dentist keeps up on alternative therapies and brought in the use of other components for fillings. Because of his influence, the fluoride is an optional process. Finding a groups like this is rare.

Hi Susan,
That is wonderful. In the UK, as you know, we all have to subscribe to the N.H.S., and so if we wanted private insurance it means paying twice. If we then use a N.H.S. dentist, we have a battle on our hands.

My teeth were ruined before I was in my teens., the dentist was subsequently struck off, and at that time people didn’t litigate, so no compensation. Lack of choice you see.

I think this is why I’m passionately pro. choice and anti-amalgam and fluoride. Not forgetting aspartame!
