GUMMY IS GOOD!

GUMMY BEARS ARE GOOD FOR YOUR TEETH:

According to a new study from the University of Washington, it turns out eating Gummy Bear candies might actually be good for your health. Why? --Gummy Bears are made with a natural sweetener called XYLITOL. Xylitol has been shown to kill a certain bacteria called streptococcus mutans. And streptococcus mutans causes tooth decay. --In other words . . . Gummy Bears prevent tooth decay. (--It's cool, right? But don't go too crazy with the Gummy Bears. According to the study, eating four Gummy Bears three times a day for six weeks will lower your chance of tooth decay . . . but they're still candy, so don't eat a box a day or anything.)
