Sugar-free gum?

What are your opinions on using sugar-free gum? Are the artificial sweeteners sabotaging my weight loss efforts?
I go back and forth on this issue. I'll go long periods without using it at all. But I'm cutting and tracking my calories right now and those Extra Dessert Delights can really help with the hunger.

Thanks!
 
Jillian recommends against it. I used to chew it but I discovered that aspartame gave me headaches and caused me to gain weight. Unfortunately, I don't know of any gum made with cane sugar anymore. I share and understand your desire for a tasty guilt free treat. Would an Elderberry Zinc lozenge work? Its not chewable, but they are natural and tasty.
