This is a complete and total myth. Some of the ingredients in gum are indigestible, and like any indigestible substance that is consumed (marbles, coins, jewelry), it will simply pass through the gastrointestinal tract and be evacuated. Although, the good news is you do not need to search through the evidence to make sure the gum has passed like you would some other indigestible items. The digestible ingredients in gum do not take any longer than other foods to digest. And the indigestible portion does not "stick" around one's intestines for years.
