ESSAY: Though hard to believe, Simplyteeth.com states that each year people spend approximately $5 billion on chewing gum; this seems to be a major waste of money, but is it really? Traditionally, gum is thought of as nothing more than a candy, thus most schools do not permit students to chew it in class. Schools do not favor gum, or any form of candy, because they view it as a distraction. However, recent research found benefits of students chewing gum in school, that out weigh the minor faults. These new findings prove that several solutions to our childrens’ health and academic problems, can be found in their candy, gum. Schools should permit students to chew gum, because it can improve the obesity issues, oral health, and learning abilities of students.
Even though most people think the opposite, chewing gum in school can help students fight and prevent obesity. Contemporary analysis describes chewing gum, as an effective component in weight loss and management routines. One study published in The Energy Expended in Chewing Gum, found that chewing gum can increase metabolism rates by up to twenty percent. Meaning that students, by chewing gum, could naturally burn more calories faster than they would if they did not chew gum. Students would have less calories to burn in the first place if they chewed gum in class, prior to lunch. Science shows that chewing gum curves our appetite, because the brain can not tell the psychological difference between chewing gum and eating, causing us to eat less. An experiment, conducted by The University of Liverpool, concluded that on average someone who chews gum prior to having a snack, will eat thirty six fewer calories than someone who does not. Each hour a person spends gum, they burn an extra eleven calories. Thus simply by chewing gum the class period before lunch, a student can unconsciously spare themselves forty seven calories. By chewing gum in school students will speed up their metabolism, as well as take in less and burn more calories, all elements that can improve record high obesity rates.
Chewing gum in school can also enhance a student’s oral health. To maintain healthy oral hygiene, dentists recommend that we brush our teeth after every meal. However in schools, after lunch, students do not have access to a toothbrush; an obvious indication that their oral health is suffering. If students could chew gum in school, the severity of this problem would significantly decrease, because chewing a stick of gum can, can similarly to brushing, clean teeth by removing food debris. Gum also contributes to a healthy mouth through the action of chewing, which triggers a faster, steady flow of saliva. According to simplyteeth.com, this extra boost of saliva movement can banish harmful acids that lead to tooth decay. Allowing students to chew gum in school will make their next trip to the dentist easier, for they will have better overall oral health.
Lastly, students’ learning abilities will improve if they have consent to chew gum in school. Some students need to have some kind of movement in order to focus and constantly tap their foot or pencil, possibly disturbing other students. However, some students may find chewing gum as s silent, less distracting, and more effective substitute for activity. The refreshing splash of flavor from a students gum, will revive the student; giving them a slight inflation of energy, improving their ability to focus on and comprehend the lesson. Students chewing gum in class will also produce an increase of memory, through memory association. For example, if when taking notes in science class students chew spearmint gum, their brain will associate the content of the notes with the flavor of spearmint. Then when taking a science exam, if the students again chew spearmint gum, their brains will recall the taste and connect it to the class material associated with it. Thus resulting in a jog of the students’ memories, so they better remember the information and earn higher test scores. Nutritionist, Gil Leville, declares that chewing gum, boosts the blood flow to the brain by up to forty percent. This extra blood circulating to the brain carries oxygen, which acts as fuel for the brain, ultimately increasing brain function. By chewing gum in class students will satisfy their craving for movement, focus more efficiently, have an extended memory, and increase brain function, ultimately advancing their learning ability.
Schools should approve of students chewing gum in class, because it can enrich the obesity issues, oral health, and learning abilities of students.
HERE I NEED SENTENCES REVIEWING MY BODY PARAGRAPHS
Now, realizing all the benefits of chewing gum, the $5 billion annually spent on gum seems to be more of an investment in health and education rather than a waste. I urge our school districts to reconsider the new found benefits of students chewing
Please help me finish a conclusion paragraph for my persuasive essay!?!?! 10 pts?
Starting off from where you ended:
Allowing the students to chew gum would make test scores higher, as the mint stimulates the brain. It would also let districts spend less profit on physical education programs as chewing gum burns calories. Oral health has always been an issue, so the gum cleaning our teeth would make us a lot healthier. As you can see, gum isn't a nuisance, it's an aide in problems around the nation.

Why am I so sexy?
It's such a pain, but people can't refrain from staring at me since I'm so damn beautiful. My beauty is such a distraction, everybody immediately drops whatever they're doing to appreciate my fine breeding. My enchanting smile induces orgasms, and my scent is that of spearmint and babies' tears. Everyone loves me... women, men, girls, boys, even animals and children: once I was walking down Central Park, a horse that was supposed to be pulling the carriages turned around to admire my beautiful presence. I mean... I want to share myself with all of you, but I can't sleep with everyone even though I'd like to. I mean, I gotta live my life, and if I sleep with everyone I see then I'd be very tired. What should I do?

Tea for two?
Is it ok to drink a 4 oz cup of mint tea? it is caffeine free and only has spearmint leaves, peppermint leaves, hibiscus and rose hips?
Tea for two?
Absolutely. Mint tea can calm your stomach, as well, and helps get rid of gas. And rose hips have vitamin C.
Reply:You should be fine. I drank a lot of hot tea when I was pregnant with my son and he is 6 months old now and VERY healthy.
DEBORAH
Reply:Sounds like that should be fine, especially in
small doses. I drank mint tea occasionally while pregnant as well as on cup of orange pekoe once a day. I love tea and cutting that down to once cup a day was a big step.

Would you go to a stip club ever? ...?
If yes, why? %26amp; if not, why, not?
I mean like a classy place like Spearmint Rhinos not some seedy Soho club.
Would you go to a stip club ever? ...?
I used to be a stripper so Yes:) For all the people who have said 'no because it degrades women' really need to get their facts straight. It does NOT degrade women. Most of the women are of sound mind and do it because a) they enjoy it and b) because they can make a damn good income. The women might be the ones taking their clothes off but they are the ones who are in control of the men/clients and using their charms to extract the money.
Reply:So it's like being a high paid hooker without providing any services? Not bad at all!!!! Report It
Reply:i would just to see what the fuss is about
Reply:it has its possibiltys
Reply:Yes without a doubt....there the only clubs where the girls come up to you and want to entertain you....at ￡5 a lapdance in liverpool it's a hell of a lot cheaper than buying a few drinks for a girl at a bar....and if you can bag a freebie your a hero....
The girls are mostly students so I don't see what so wrong with them....
Reply:Well these strippers make a fortune and that is why they do it. I bet they can rake in a good $500 a night easy.
I've been a couple of times to see male strippers back in the days when we were single and the guys were having their Stags...us girls would have our Stagettes...and go to a classy male strip bar.
I felt sorry for the poor guys, the way they were grappled and all by women. They were pretty decent about it all, but really it's all pretty cheesy in the end, and I think they bring out the worst in people.
Really, if you go for the sake of curiosity, once or twice in your lifetime, I don't see what the big deal is....but men or women who make a habit of hanging out in these places are a pretty sad lot and lack something big time in their lives.
Really...you're not missing a damned thing if you never go...it's just a cheap thrill and you got plenty of that on TV these days for free so save your money.
I imagine it's a lot smuttier in the female strip bars however...maybe some let the old boys cop a feel too...pretty cheesy and yes it is degrading...Vegas has bars like that too where women will serve you topless...anywhere you got money and booze you will have strippers or worse! :~)
