Summary

Did you know that your favorite chewing gum might be made from the same plastic used in inner tubes and plastic bottles?

I recently discovered that gum wrappers contained microplastics—but I was shocked when I dug deeper and discovered what’s actually hiding inside most gum products themselves.

On today’s episode, I’ll break down the research and reveal the toxic ingredients commonly found in popular chewing gum. Plus, I’ll share safe and natural alternatives that let you freshen your breath without the toxic load.

Join me on today’s Cabral Concept 3399 to uncover the shocking truth about chewing gum. Enjoy the show—and let me know what you think!
