How long does it take gum to digest?

Gum does not get digested in your body. It passes through the digestive system largely intact, and is eventually excreted in your feces. The act of chewing gum stimulates saliva production, and the ingredients used in gum like artificial sweeteners, flavors and colors can also alter the pH balance of the mouth, which can sometimes lead to digestive problems like gas, bloating and an upset stomach.
