A new study raises the possibility that simply chewing sugarless gum might make a difference in reducing early births.

People probably know not to feed their dogs chocolate, but there's an ingredient in things you use every day that could be just as deadly to your dog. Xylitol is a sugar alcohol used as a sweetener in multiple food products, such as peanut butter, cupcakes, cookies, sugar-free gum, muffins, ketchup, protein bars, fruit drinks and pudding, and if your dog consumes it, it can be fatal. Because Xylitol is a sweetener that has few carbs, it's often used in keto-friendly foods, allowing people to stay in ketosis. Symptoms typically develop within 15 to 30 minutes of consumption. If you think your dog may have eaten a product containing Xylitol, contact the Poison Pet Helpline at 855-764-7661 or your local veterinarian.
