I think that if we use Erythritol, it will make the bubble gum healtheir, safe, and with less harm to the digestive system

   In some research has concluded that chewing gum improves memory, concentration, sustained attention, and reduces stress, other research has found no such benefits. A recent systematic review of 21 studies found not a strong, but a statistically significant relation between chewing and sustained attention

Procedure for Spruce

1. Look for spruce trees and collect the sap.

2. Put all the spruce sap that you collected in a box

3. Grab a pot that has aluminum foil on the bottom, and put parchment paper over the aluminum foil.

4. Get a sieve, then put all the sap that you collected

5. Start shaking the sieve until all of the bark and dust get off.

6. Put the sieve on the pot, then put both of them in the oven for A couple of hours or until it stops dripping at 250F

7. After taking it out of the oven, if you want to have colour put food colouring in the sticky sap, then mix for about one minute, start playing with it, roll it if it gets stiff, and put it in the oven for a couple of minutes

8. Next, gently start rolling it again leave it to cool for a few seconds then start cutting it into chewable

     Procedure for gum

1. soften the maltose by placing the packet into a cup(or bowl) of hot water. Handle the hot water carefully and set aside.

2. Open the package of gum. Remove the solid piece of gum base from the packet and put it in a disposable, microwave-safe container.

3.. the gum base with warm water and set it aside.

4. put the corner off of the powdered sugar packet to open it for about a third of the packet,(about 2 tablespoons) into your work surface and form a small Eno-shaped mound with a hole between 2 inches wide in the middle you should not be able to see your work surface through the whole set aside the rest of the powdered sugar.

5. Drain the water from the soap base you can leave a small amount of water to keep. The gum was heated evenly when it was in the microwave.

6. Microwave the gun base for 30 seconds (or less) at a time after each cooking individually steer the mixture and check to see if the gum base has softened by pressing on it gently with a fork continue microwave the gum base in a short individuals until the gum base has softened into a thick gooey liquid do not overheat the gum, or it may begin to smell burnt. Be careful when removing the container of the heated gum base from the microwave it will be, very hot and sticky

7. Once the Gum base is hot and gooey, drain any excess water into the sink, remove the softened maltose pack from the cup of hot water (carefully cut) open the pack with scissors at the corner. Squeeze about a third of the maltose into the hot gum base. If you prefer, you can measure this by filling up one heaping teaspoon set aside to rest of the maltose

8. Add the. maltose to the hot gum base.The maltose is very sticky, you may need to use your finger or another spoon to scrape the maltose into the gum base. Can open one of the flavour packets and add it to the warm mixture of gum, base and. maltose. Stir Mix it in.

9. Use utensils, such as a fork and a spoon to transfer the hot gum mixture into the mount of sugar while the gum mixture is still hot, move some of the axis sugar to the edge of the mount to cover

10. The gum mixture., it will begin to become firm. Before it cools completely., the powdered sugar must be kneaded into the gum mixture. this makes it taste sweet and I don’t just help you with this. Remember that the gum mixture is very hot. You can start folding sugar into the gum mixture with a fork or spoon once the mixture has cold slightly., you can begin to use your, but be very careful in case it is still hot, need the sugar into the gum mixture Repeatedly stretching and flattening the mixture.

11. Use your hands to rule the gum mixture into a 6 to 10-inch long cylinder., with a thickness of about half of an inch. The longer and thinner the cylinder, the smaller the pieces of gum will be. scissors or a knife to cut the gum into the small pie. your gum is finished now take some parchment paper or aluminum foil and wrap your gum.

Our experiment successfully worked,and it produce healthy gum by using stevia and no artificial flavors.To make this project to succeed we used the method of making healthy chewable bubblegum.Stieva benefited us in making a bubble that will cause no harm to your digestive system,blood sugar,diabetes,tooth decay and etc.Additionally we wanted to do healthy gum because it helps in clean your teeth,boost your memory,reduces heartburn,helping you in weight management,prevent disease and diabetes.If I did the experiment again I would improve the flavoring and the taste.I would also would like to make it with high quality next time.

As you can see, on my first data I compared different types of gum on how long it would take for the gum to digest in your stomach. The gum brands that I used to compare were Hubba Bubba, Spruce Gum, Juicy Fruit and Mentos. Each colour on the data represented a different type of gum, the blue was Hubba Bubba and it was 22.2%, which means the Hubba Bubba gum took 4 days to disgust in your stomach. The mentos took 6 days, the juicy fruit took 5 days and finally spruce gum took 3 days to digest in your stomach. The best option of all of these gum where spruce gum,if you want to stay healthy.

In the second data I compared three flavours of gum,Hubba bubba,Juicy fruit and spruce gum.The blue color  represented the amount of sugar there is in the gum.Hubba Bubba had 6.00grams of sugar in it, Juicy fruit had 3.00g of sugar in it and spruce gum had no sugar.In the other bar the red represented how much calorie you will get if you kept on chewing the gum,Hubba bubba you will get 25 calorie, if you chewed Juicy fruit you will get 10 calories,If you had spruce gum you would get zero calorie. If you were on a diet I would recommend you to choose spruce gum, but if your a kid I recommend Juicy fruit.

In my third data, I reassured of what people want to see in gum nowadays. They wanted to see vitamins, gut health, heart fitness, mass management, and community uplift. Vitamins were one of the things requested on the gum data because when they chew gum, they want the gum to produce vitamins that help boost the immune system, support normal growth and help cells and organs do their job. Each colour represented a different category, the blue was vitamins and it was 23.3%, the red was gut health and it was 21.3%, the yellow was the immunity uplift, the green was mass management and it was 18.0% and finally the orange which represented the heart fitness and was 17.3%.

My last data was about the bubble gum me and my partner made, we made healthy chewable bubble gum. In this data we listed its features like if it freshens our breath and the percentage was 30% because we didn't have minty flavours, another one was keeping my mouth from being dried this percentage was 60% because when we were chewing the saliva kept the mouth from being dry, fun to chew the preaching was 80 percent because you could feel the flavours melting in your mouth, helps me manage my stress and the presented was 50% because when I got some of the gum, it helped me become more focused and finally it satisfied my looking for something sweet, and the percentage was 20 percent. We decided based on our experiment,  we also had someone test it and tell us.

It's concluded that gum has a good side to it and a bad side. The good thing about gum is it provides good memory and covers bad breath. The other side is it has a lot of sugar, and might cause cavities, jaw pain and headaches if chewed a lot. So,that's why me and my partner decided to research about spruce and make gum healthy chewable gum. Spruce gum had lots of benefits in the project.

We all know the myth that if you swallow gum it stays in your digestive system for 7 years, but that’s not true. Some pieces stay longer than others, like Hubba Bubba gum which stays for 4 days, but Sprue gum stays for 3 days. I think 3 days is Better than 4, and the other bubble gum causes jaw pain.

It is a good idea to chew gum in class. A university in Texas experimented to test if gum is better to chew gum before the test, during the test, or not chewing gum in the test. The experiment concluded that people who chewed before got a good mark. The people who chewed during the test got the best mark, but the people who did not chew gum did the worst

In our project we have lots of error,one of them,it was really hard to find the spruce gum and to reasherch about it
