Misophonia sufferers find these sounds more than just mildly annoying. Beginning in late childhood or early adolescence, the condition causes extreme anger, anxiety and terror when a trigger sound, such as chewing gum, is heard.
People who chewed gum were less likely to eat fruit and instead were more motivated to eat junk food like potato chips and candy. Chewing gum causes you to swallow excess air, which can contribute to abdominal pain and bloating, along with other gastrointestinal issues. Chewing gum (including sugar-free gum) may cause tooth decay and erosion and may cause mercury to be released from your mercury fillings.
