I happened to be watching The Food Network channel the other evening and saw a show dealing with chewing/bubble gum. One of the products featured was a bubble gum by name of Quench made specifically for dry mouth problems. It seems to be quite popular with atheletes according to the show. I thought I would try and find some the next day and found small packages of it at a local sporting goods store (Dick's) here in the Atlanta area. I have tried it now and was quite surprised at how it does stimulate the saliva glands. I have been monitoring the OCF site for about 8 months and don't recall seeing any reference to this product before.

I have been using the gum from Biotene and it seems hard to find in local stores. It is my experience that Quench is as good if not better than the Biotene product. I have researched if further and it appears the most economical way to purchase Quench is from the Internet with doing a Google search. It comes in a large 300 piece tub as the cheapest per piece means of buying.

Just thought a few of the "Sahara Mouth Club" members would like to know.
