5 Gum Spearmint Rain Sugar-Free Gum offers you the choice of tingling, 5 Gum Spearmint flavor that's long-lasting and delicious. 5 Gum allows for longer lasting flavor because it contains sugar-free ingredients. Sugarless gums lasts longer than sugared gum because the sorbitol and xylitol used to flavor the gum takes a loger time to dissolve in the mouth than sugar. The longer you chew your Spearmint Rain flavor 5 Gum, the more the flavoring of the gum dissolves in your mouth. As the sugar substitutes dissolve, the less they're able to boost the flavor of your 5 Gum. However, these sugar substitutes don't dissolve nearly as fast as the sugar in other, standard sugared gums. Sorbitol is a primary ingredient used in many sugar-free chewing gums, including this 5 Gum. Sorbitol is a low-calorie natural sweetener that's chemically extracted from glucose. Sorbitol has less of an effect on sugar levels, which makes it a great alternative to sugar for diabetics or for people looking to prevent the development of diabetes. Sorbitol also helps food stay moist and provides a natural, mouth-cooling sensation similar to mint. UPC: 022000020796 Weight: 1.94 lbs RKU: SAM980102274
