The use of stevia leaf and crude stevia extracts is not considered GRAS, and their import into the U.S. is not permitted for use as sweeteners. For details, see Import Alert 45-06.

Most chewing gum manufacturers keep their exact recipes a secret. They often refer to their specific combination of gum, resin, filler, softeners, and antioxidants as their “gum base.”All the scientific studies to date in animals and human volunteers have shown that the breakdown of aspartame in the gut is very rapid and complete.
