So Why can't I chew gum?
besides the risk of swallowing it and it getting stuck. When you chew....... gum, or anything else for that matter, your brain signals your stomach to increase it's production of gastric acid in anticipation that there will be food to digest. More gastric acid can cause at the least more acid reflux , nausea, etc...and the worst erosion at your staple line increasing the chance of a leak.
who said you couldn't chew SF GUM?
Quite a few peeps HAVE accidently swallowed their gum here within the FIRST WEEK post op...
no big deal... it dissolves, don't believe the 'urban legends' ...DO AN OH SEARCH "VSG SWALLOWED GUM" don't believe me.
the artificial sugars in SF gum are no different than the artificial sugars in your protein shakes, vitamins and some minerals, your jello, your popscicles ,crystal light G2 or SF Soy Latte have you EVER used any of these products....No? Then ya never had WLS! lmao
