First seen Mar 28, 2026 · Last updated May 25, 2026 · Updated 9 times
Summary
This study looked at whether chewing gum after colorectal surgery can help reduce nausea, vomiting, and speed up bowel function recovery. 84 adults who had laparoscopic colorectal surgery took part. The idea is that chewing gum may stimulate the digestive system through a 'fake feeding' effect, helping the gut wake up after anesthesia.
