NOT JUST ANY GUM-- BUT CHEWING GUM WITH A SWEETENER CALLED XYLITOL.

" SO HOW MIGHT XYLITOL WORK? RESEARCHERS BELIEVE THE SWEETENER INHIBITS
OR PREVENTS THE GROWTH OF A GERM CALLED PNEUMOCOCCUS. PNEUMOCOCCUS IS
THE MOST CAUSE OF CHILDHOOD EAR INFECTIONS. SO IF A YOUNGSTER WOULD BE
EXPOSED TO PNEUMCOCCUS FROM ANOTHER CHILD- THE XYLITOL CHEWING GUM WOULD
PREVENT THE GERM FROM GOING UP INTO THE MIDDLE EAR."
CHILDREN UNDER AGE 2- WHO REALLY CANT SAFELY CHEW GUM- WERE GIVEN A
SYRUP WITH XYLITOL- IT ALSO WORKED WELL AT PREVENTING EAR INFECTIONS
WITH NO SIDE EFFECTS.
