Smart Organic's Bett'r 100% natural chewing gum is made from a base of chicle, a healthier alternative to conventional chewing gum products that revisits the ancient practice of using tree sap as a natural gum. Decades ago, chewing gum was commonly made with chicle but today, consumers are much more familiar with synthetic ingredients. This new chewing gum by Bett'r sets itself apart as a better-for-you alternative with a refreshing spearmint flavor and just a hint of sweetness from xylitol—and no added sugars, aspartame or other artificial sweeteners.
Additionally, the natural chewing gum is free from paraffin wax and other petroleum products, as well as propylene glycol and colorants. As such, Bett'r brands its all-natural gum as a healthier chewing gum choice that's "totally guilt-free."
