According to data from NielsenIQ shared by Bloomberg, gum sales from May 2021 increased more than 23 percent from where it was almost a year ago. After months of basking in our own stank, consumers are gearing up for the re-opening, taking extra measures to ensure their mouths are minty fresh.
If you’re eager for better breath, consider buying a pack of natural chewing gum. Until recently, most traditional chewing gums have been made with suspect ingredients and chemicals that aren’t great for our bodies, such as aspartame.
Instead, chew on some tasty, breath-freshening natural chewing gum. Brands like Simply, Pur, and Quip all offer organic, chemical-free alternatives that will leave your mouth sparkling clean.
