Information About Xylitol Gum Power Bite - Wintergreen 2-pak:
Common Uses: The presence of sugars in the mouth creates a perfect breeding ground for bacteria. The activity of these bacteria produces an acidic environment that can eat away at tooth enamel and cause plaque to build up resulting in irritated and inflamed gums and eventually gum disease. Xylitol is a naturally occurring carbohydrate that does not affect insulin levels and raises the pH level in the mouth, neutralizing acids produced by sugar-fed bacteria. It is the only sugar substitute that can be ingested but not metabolized by streptococcus mutans, the bacteria responsible for the build-up of plaque on the teeth, effectively killing it. Chewed for five minutes several times a day, PowerBite gum, which is 100% sweetened with xylitol and enhanced with decay and plaque preventing herbs, will aid in the prevention of dental caries and gum disease.
Suggested Uses: For optimum dental health chew this gum 3 times a day or after every meal.
Traditional Uses: Xylitol was first derived from Birch trees in Finland in the 19th century and was first popularized in Europe as a safe sweetener for diabetics that would not impact insulin levels. Birch Sugar has also been used as a digestive aid and a anti-bacterial agent for cleaning teeth.
Herbal Anecdote: Xylitol is an all-natural sugar alcohol which freely occurs in most plants, as well as in the human body.
