Pur Gum

By 414 Comments

 

Pur Gum is all natural and sugarfree, with no artificial flavors, no artificial colors and infused with antioxidants. In fact, the gum package lists only 7 ingredients – which is downright odd yet fantastic when compared to the dozens that others have {which are impossible to pronounce at that}.
Most chewing gums on the market also contain aspartame, which not only can cause depression, nausea and headaches – it’s a huge no-no for pregnant women and children. I was shocked to read some great articles on the dangers of aspartame, here, here and here. I will let you have a read for yourself, but it is such astonishing read that I’m sure you will be ridding your cupboards of aspartame! And, you will be shocked at the high dangers of aspartame consumption for kids. It can lead to accumulation of formaldehyde in the brain! I had no idea!
When I flew with my girls across Canada last weekend, I was sure to pack some Pür Gum for the trip. We had been chewing the gum for weeks beforehand, yet I knew that the kids would be asking for some on the plane. Two of my kids chewed their gum, especially during takeoff and landing – and had no problems with their ears. My one twin wouldn’t have any, but she was out of her element on the plane. In fact, it’s the first time she has ever refused gum, go figure. Not only was I happy to have them occupied and happy little flyers – but I rested easier knowing that if they swallowed the gum, it’s not going to harm them with a ton of chemicals. After all, we all know that kids can swallow the occasional piece!

Our favorite flavor is the Pomegranate Mint, it’s fruity with only a tad of the mint taste. I’ll also note that the Peppermint and Spearmint aren’t a too-strong mint-taste either. Which is good with me as I’m not a huge fan of nasal-clearing gums. Pür Gum can be found all across North America!

    I would love this product! I am a gum chewer mostly to keep myself from snacking, but I would love a more natural gum product without all the chemicals.

    I would love to win this for our trip to Churchill in the fall, I have mostly given up my gum addiction for cost and all the things you said above – but this sounds amazing. The trip we are taking will be both my girls first time on a plane and I would love for them to have gum to chew, and my hubby as well (heck why not myself to?) This sounds great!

    That sounds great! I’d like to win because I like chewing gum and recently had to start checking ingredient labels very carefully since I can no longer have any ‘sugar alcohol’ (xylitol, sorbitol…blah, blah) those are in almost all the aspertame free gums! No fun.

    I’d like to win this because I have a hole in one eardrum; because of this, I was advised by my doctor to chew gum to keep the Eustachian Tube draining and prevent ear infections. This has no aspartame, but is sweetened with xylitol, which might even help prevent cavities.

    I would like to win because we go through quite a bit of gum at our hose and this kind sounds good. I have never seen Pomegranate flavour in gum.

    I would really like to win this posh platter of chuddy for my Mum… as I’ve just spent the last two hours researching aspartame free chewing gums for her. However, I guess that’s nothing on all the years she’s spent searching for it in the stores.
    I’ve just sent her about 8 of what seem to be the best links in an email and read about this competition before I forwarded it.
    So I thought I’d give it a go as it’s always best to try before you buy!

    Avoid (AminoSweet) on labels too as this is the new name for Aspartame apparently. Also I read that Aspartame can be listed by its number (E951) and info may not even show up on the label at all…I’m not sure how they can get away with this though?! Just something to bear in mind if you’re desperately trying to avoid it.

    I’d like to try this gum because I like the idea of only 7 ingredients. I already avoid aspartame, as I find it gives me a headache, so this gum sounds great!

    I would love to win because I don’t like the taste of aspartame and I can really taste in products that contain them. Also I would feel better sharing this gum with my nieces and nephew than other brands.

    I would soooo love to win this gum for the very reasons you listed….I’d rather be at ease when my son swallows his gum (or several…thankfully my daughter is 6 and well out of that phase). And I LOVE the minimal ingredients. Sounds perfect.

    I’ll be checking this gum out next time I’m at the store for sure!!!

    I’d like to win because I love chewing gum and this brand sounds very good without a lot of harmful ingredients. I’ve started saying no to “Aspartame”.

    There are sugar-free chocolate chip cookies which
    use an equally sweet sugar substitute. You can try volunteering to bake cupcakes
    as your gift for the birthday celebration or come prepared by making
    a special gift of treats for the celebrant then handing out smaller portions
    for the party to enjoy. This is important when working with chocolate since it sets fast so have some
    type of plan before starting.

    The good thing is, chocolate fundraisers don’t have to be about
    candy bars. e sugar in its concentrated forms in combination with other ingredients.

    I am rounding up some ideas that would surely work for you on this
    Valentine’s Day.
