I have a habit and it's chewing gum sugar free. Am I to count calories and carbs?

    I always believed that what goes in the mouth, goes on the tracker....

    Try xylitol gum. It's the best sweetener there is and naturally occurring, favored by Dr. Atkins himself because it has almost no impact on blood sugar. In my opinion, it has the "cleanest" sweetness as well, and with no aftertaste. It's also excellent for oral health and your dentist will notice on your next checkup that you're using it.

    Here's my favorite:

    It also comes in mints, toothpaste, mouthwash, and of course granulated for baking.
