PUR Gum | Aspartame Free Chewing Gum | 100% Xylitol | Natural Spearmint Flavored Gum, 55 Pieces (Pack of 6)

My mouth gets dry when I run — I’m a mouth breather — so I always stick in some gum before I start. Pur peppermint has been my gum of choice recently, and here’s why. It’s a 5K gum. For about three miles it keeps me hydrated — not with constant chewing or anything, just hanging out in my mouth with an occasional munch here and there when needed — and it has a good consistency and texture. Unlike other gums, it doesn’t start falling apart with all the air coming in or lack of use. But at the three-mile mark, it’s time for another piece.This works well for me. The flavor is good, and it stimulates enough saliva to keep me going until I can stop and properly hydrate. The other flavors don’t work at all. Peppermint is the winner for my needs.There’s more gum in this bag than I expected — a lot of miles — and the price is definitely reasonable for the benefits.

I switched over to this gum from Mentos Spearmint gum and while there are differences, I prefer this one. Mentos has a strong flavor initially that lasts longer than the PUR but once the flavor is gone, it’s GONE. With this gum I noticed that there isn’t such a bold flavor like Mentos to start out with but there is a “spearmint residue” that remains even after the initial bold flavor is gone, if that makes sense? I heard about the importance of xylitol gum from Dr. Ellie Phillips whose advice has transformed my teeth in such a short period of time so I will be continuing to purchase this gum as long as I am able to.value3.0 out of 5value: 3 out of 5quality5.0 out of 5quality: 5 out of 5taste4.0 out of 5taste: 4 out of 5

I really like this gum. I often have dry mouth and this gum actually does the trick to take care of that issue. The flavor stays for a very long time which is wonderful. Can't say that about a lot of gum on the market. It remains soft and chewable too which I appreciate. Some gum gets so hard that your jaw hurts. Not this gum. It's as fresh and soft as when you start. The variety pack was my first choice as I wasn't sure which flavor I might enjoy more. Now that I know I can focus on that type when I make my next purchase. It's a very good product. I will definitely be buying more.

I really like this product, except for the microplastics. That is the reason why I just canceled my subscription. I hope they eventually change it so that it does not have microplastics. I want to try to minimize my intake of microplastics.AI search results on Google:"Yes, PUR Gum, like other chewing gums, contains microplastics. A recent study found that both synthetic and natural chewing gums, including PUR Gum, release microplastics into saliva. The study found that chewing gum, whether synthetic or natural, releases hundreds to thousands of microplastic particles per piece into saliva according to the American Chemical Society. "

We buy this gum all the time. I love the cinnamon flavor, and smell.Good value, hard to find in stores, so buying on Amazon makes it a no brainer decision.Easy to use, they come in a resealable bag with multiple packs.Just the right texture, not too sticky on fillings.There are multiple flavors, and I have tried a couple but I love cinnamon and that’s my go to flavor.I like the fact that that it’s a healthier choice with no artificial sweeteners, unlike most gums out there.I put them in a small tin in my purse, for my convenience.

Pur gum is healthier as far as sweetener goes (it contains xylitol rather than aspartame or corn syrup), and the flavors are fine. However, just like all the less healthy chewing gums, Pur contains something called “gum base”. Gum base is typically composed of various emulsifiers such as polysorbate 80, carrageenan, maltodextrin, or xanthan gum—each of which can cause health problems. Because I know that there are safer and more natural alternatives, I emailed Pur to ask if their chewing gums contain any of these aforementioned ingredients, but they (politely) refused to answer, saying that their formula is proprietary. Since they wouldn’t tell me that their products *don’t* contain these emulsifiers, I can’t recommend them.

Initial gum flavor drops off quick but stabilizes at around 40% flavor. Unlike other sugar free gums with more questionable sweeteners (i.e. Extra, Trident) the flavor doesn't turn gross after about 20-30 minutes. It just keeps going for hours and maintains it's texture (and flavor), which saves me a lot of pieces of gum! It's also a healthier sweetener option.

I really like this gum! The mint flavor is refreshing and it really helps with my sugar cravings. It’s not the longest-lasting gum out there, but it does the job — and it’s definitely better than me reaching for chocolate every time. Perfect for when I need a little something to keep me from snacking. Will be buying again!
