Remedies For Primary Biliary Cholangitis

Chewing Gum

Chewing gum that is free from sugar can help stimulate the production of saliva and restore moisture to the mouth. Saliva is an overlooked but vital component of the body’s function. It is one of the first elements of our digestive system, moistening food and beginning the digestion process through the help of enzymes. Not only does it keep us from suffering the irritation of a dry mouth, but it also helps keep us healthy with antifungal and antibacterial properties. It also contains components that aid in the rebuilding of tooth enamel and in countering the effects of acids in the mouth. If left untreated, dry mouth can result in further complications including bad breath, difficulty chewing and swallowing, elevated risk of infection, and damage to the lining of the mouth and lips.
