I have always been a major gum chewer... I work with clients all day long and my breath has to be fresh... anyone know if sugar free chewing gum like trident or orbit (my favs) are gluten free? I can't tell by the ingredients they list... all tech names.

I'm pretty sure almost all Wrigley gums are gluten-free. I chew Winterfresh...and then also Altoids.

Awesome thanks!! Not to sound stupid but I keep seeing this list mentioned... where can it be found so I don't have to keep bugging you guys about every single product?

Glee Gum is my favorite. It's free of all the artificial junk too. :)

Thanks for bringing this up. I miss chewing gum too...I assumed it was all kind of starched up in something glutinous, since you can see something powdery on most chewing gum. I've avoided it all since February, and I was just wondering last night if there were any safe chewing gums! I want some...gonna go buy some today!!!!

I was finally able to find this in a health food store a couple of towns up. The owner had to order the Peppermint for me. Just got it--haven't tried it yet :)

I went to the glee gum site and liked what I saw... I'll probably order some... does it stick to dental work? I have a flipper replacing a tooth I knocked out and some gums get stuck to it... while others don't...

Hmm....I have a wire retainer thing on the back of my teeth and it doesn't stick to that. I don't chew it that often though (but I do like it. it's good stuff :) )

I don't chew any gum, but I'm a big mint fan. Tic-Tacs are gluten-free:) I could not survive w/out them.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
