Description
This wonderfully flavorful GUM is sweetened exclusively with cavity-fighting xylitol. Each piece contains 1.06 grams of xylitol!
Xylitol -- A Safe Alternative to Sugar
Epic gum and Spry gum with Xylitol is a safe alternative to sugar-based gums and is free of gluten and casein. The corn from which Epic xylitol is made is pharmaceutical grade, non-GMO (genetically modified organisms), and is grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Once the xylitol is made, there are no corn proteins left to provide allergens that could cause a corn-based reaction. The gum does use a soy-based lecithin.
Dental Benefits of Xylitol Use
Along with proper dental hygiene, xylitol can reduce the risk of dental caries and plaque. Xylitol-sweetened products, such as chewing gums and mints, increase salivary flow, preventing dry mouth and aiding in repair of damaged tooth enamel.
"With xylitol use, the quality of the bacteria in the mouth changes and fewer and fewer decay-causing bacteria survive on tooth surfaces. Less plaque forms and the level of acids attacking the tooth surface is lowered." California Dental Association
Experts who have studied the effects of xylitol on teeth recommend:
- Daily intake of 6 grams of xylitol for patients at high risk for cavities
- Use of xylitol products that actively stimulate saliva, such as xylitol gum
- Distribution of the daily intake over at least three occasions (e.g. – after meals)
- Use of 100% xylitol sweetened products
TMJ patients avoiding gum chewing may prefer Xylitol Mints, Toothpaste, Oral Rinse and Dental Floss as alternatives to gum as part of a daily xylitol routine.

Great product, fast shipping
I've been using this product for years, and I'm convinced it's who I've had less cavities since then. Very high quality xylitol gum. I buy in bulk. The shipping from homestead is the cheapest worldwide. Very fast too. Will buy again.

Mrs.
I love this Fruitty gum! I buy the BIG bag of them and share it with my grandkids. It keeps your teeth clean and has prevented cavities for me. Though I have quite a few crowns, my dentist suggested I chew just Xylitol gum. This is the best brand I have ever found. (They ship fast and even tucked in a little bottle of Fruity gum I carry in my purse. Thank you for that!

Epic Xylitol Peppermint Gum 1000ct
I love this gum! The flavor is the best and the longest lasting out of the xyitol gum brands I have tried. It also helps that Epic boasts the highest percentage of xylitol per piece. I used to purchase peppermint epic gum from another retailer in smaller quantities, but I switched over to homested market after finding the 1000ct bag here at a good price. The product is great and this company is fantastic to deal with, so look no further if you're an avid gum consumer like me!

Kids like Epic Fruit gum
I buy this for my kids for the many benefits and they always ask for more. They love the flavor, and I prefer that if they''re going to chew gum, to avoid the chemical sugars, which is in every gum in stores. So I purchased the big bag this time, and we''ll see how long it lasts!
