    I swallowed chewing gum accedently, is there any harm
    I swallowed chewing gum accedently. Is there any danger to me. Will this gum come out of the body as digestive output or it'll stick somewhere inside. Please someone answer it soon.

    That's true Need.
    I can't count the number of times it has happened to me.
    :D

    I swallow gum all the time. They say that it takes 7 years to digest one piece. Accroding to the discovery channel that is not true.

    Once in a while is okay, but as a regular practice this is not really desirable. You just eliminate it either way but try to go easy on this particular practice. My dog just adores gum and chews it for 2 seconds and then swallows it and wants more. Hasn't hurt her and she's probably ingested tons of gum in her little lifetime of 7 years, so I don't think it will hurt you any.
