Description: Xylitol is a safe and natural sweetener made from Birch that promotes good health. Xylitol decreases plaque formation and adhesion, cuts off dental acid attacks, hardens tooth enamel and repairs small emerging cavities. It has a cooling effect in the mouth, leaves no aftertaste, and is an ideal sweetener for a gum. It is also safe for Diabetics. Ingredients: Sweeteners (xylitol 70% weight), gum base (i.e. original latex from sapodilla tree), licorice extract, natural flavor, gum arabic, lecithin, glycerin, beeswax, carnaubawax. Product Research: Pure xylitol is a white crystalline substance that looks and tastes like sugar. On food labels, xylitol is classified broadly as a carbohydrate and more narrowly as a polyol. Because xylitol is only slowly absorbed and partially utilized, a reduced calorie claim is allowed: 2.4 calories per gram or 40% less than other carbohydrates. Xylitol has been used in foods since the 1960’s. It is a popular sweetener for the diabetic diet in some countries. In the U.S., xylitol is approved as a food additive in unlimited quantity for foods with special dietary purposes.

Licorice root, still used worldwide as a dentrifice, xlitol=dentist recommendedJan 21, 2010
By Kevin O. Berger Licorice is one of the oldest PROVEN EFFECTIVE dentrifices on the face of this planet. Xylitol is one of the newest.
Combine them and BOOM! tasty, wonderful chewing delight that you don't have to feel guilty about.
Support this company, read the ingredients, these are better than virtually ALL gums on the market.
This is my favorite flavor from this brand/company.
If you doubt the validity of my claims, use the magic of Wikipedia, or your local library.
The company that distributes this gum in the States is Tundra Trading Company, google that.
Enjoy
Best Xylitol gumNov 24, 2010
By H. Joffe
"I love movies"
I happen to like licorice and the XyliChew brand is definitely one of the best sugar-free gums. The licorice flavor is, by far, my favorite. I absolutely love this product not only for the taste but texture and good sweet/spicy/savory balance. It has a "thicker," more savory quality than some of the other xylitol gums, and the licorice tastes natural, not chemical. I love this product!

hello? anybody out there?Mar 02, 2010
By A. Schindler I ordered this product 1/17/10 and was sent notification that it was backordered. The only reason I ordered it online was because my local health food store was out of it for weeks. Meanwhile, the health food store has been restocked for a month, and I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE PRODUCT FROM MY ONLINE ORDER YET. I like the product very much, but order it from another supplier.
