A sugar-free gum offering a refreshing cherry-lime flavor, designed for those seeking a low-calorie snack or mouth freshener.
The nutrition facts reveal 5 calories per piece, with no fat, sodium, or protein, and only 2 carbohydrates per serving. However, the presence of artificial sweeteners like Xylitol, sorbitol, and sucralose raises concerns about potential digestive discomfort and blood sugar impact despite its sugar-free label.
The product is categorized as ultra-processed due to its reliance on multiple artificial additives and synthetic flavoring, making it a convenience food rather than a nutrient-rich option. This classification aligns with the ingredient list, which includes processed sugars and stabilizers like gum arabic and glycerine, contributing to its highly processed nature.
Given these factors, this product is not a healthful choice and may encourage cravings or contribute to suboptimal metabolic effects. A better alternative would be fresh fruit, such as watermelon or lime, or simply drinking water, both of which provide natural hydration and nutrients without artificial additives.
