Mastic gum offers potential benefits for oral hygiene, digestive relief, and jaw muscle strength, though more large-scale human clinical studies are still needed.
Oral and Dental Health
Reduces plaque and bacteria: Chewing mastic gum helps lower oral bacteria and prevents plaque buildup.
Freshens breath: It helps decrease volatile compounds linked to bad breath (halitosis).
Digestion and Gut Health Soothes stomach discomfort: It may help relieve symptoms of indigestion, heartburn, and functional dyspepsia.
Fights H. pylori: Some studies show it has antimicrobial effects against Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium linked to stomach ulcers, though human trial results remain mixed.
Supports IBD symptoms:
Its anti-inflammatory properties may help reduce inflammation associated with inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn's disease.
Jaw and Facial MusclesBuilds masseter strength: Because it is much harder and chewier than regular gum, it acts as resistance training for the jaw.Increases bite force: Regular chewing can increase masseter muscle thickness and bite force, though changes to facial aesthetics are not reliably proven.
Metabolic and Liver Support Lowers blood sugar and cholesterol:
Early research suggests capsules may modestly help reduce fasting glucose and total cholesterol, particularly in overweight individuals.
Protects the liver: Limited studies indicate it may help lower liver enzymes associated with tissue damage.
