We ran it through the same pipeline you get. Here's the receipt.
Swallowed gum is not retained in the stomach for seven years; it usually passes through the digestive system largely intact, although swallowing large amounts can rarely cause obstruction.
The claim confuses indigestibility with long-term retention. Gum usually passes through the digestive tract within days; rare obstruction can occur after substantial repeated swallowing.
Exact transit time varies by person and amount swallowed, and direct studies measuring gum transit are limited.
Type the claim. We research it, cite it, and print a receipt you can send them.
