Chewing can provide better impulse control. Are you one of those people who would need better impulse control? I wouldn’t mind it, sometimes I get an impulsive idea and Do or I say things that I regret. If you are impulse-driven, there seems to be an opportunity to get better without having to seek professional support. CHEW PEER stimulates not only the mouth but also the brain. Chewing increases the activity of the cerebral cortex and the work of the muscles increases blood flow to the head. Some of the blood moves on to the brain. Since the frontal lobes are activated by chewing, parts of the blood flow are led there. It seems it might help us become less impulsive.
Impulse control is the ability to control and control spontaneous whims. People with good impulse control think about the consequences of a thought if it becomes action. Poor impulse control means that you act first and then think. Impulses are usually controlled by emotion. They show up quickly and disappear almost as quickly again. If you have the ability to wait a few seconds to react, the strongest emotions will subside and the impulse will fade down.
Lack of impulse control may be due to ADHD
The ability to control your impulses usually gets better as you get older. If it doesn’t, you should try to do something about it. This can be the case if you are diagnosed with ADHD or autism. If you have a very difficult time controlling your impulses, you can end up in dangerous situations and then you need all the help. Therefore, JAWPEER and CHEW PEER can be important aids for people with ADHD, even if they do not solve all problems.
The frontal lobes are more developed in humans than in any other animal species. Rational, logical thinking takes place there. The area is also connected to our emotional centre Amygdala. Therefore, we can more easily control our emotions by stimulating the anterior cortex. So we can control our impulses better by chewing. Spontaneous people who want better impulse control can therefore enjoy JAWPEER.
Hunter-gatherer chewed much more than us. We are designed by evolution to survive in nature like other animals. The jaws are made to chew. Therefore, the enamel of teeth is the hardest material in the body. The masseter muscle is also the strongest muscle in the body. So our bodies are not adapted to the life we live. They are not even made for Agricultural society. The mouth has been the most important tool throughout the history of mankind. We are made to chew as hunter-gatherers do.
Dentist Dr Mike Mew and his father John have long argued that chewing has deteriorated in the modern era, and that could be the reason why only humans (and our pets) have crooked teeth, impaired breathing and sunken faces. Father and son Mew have been met not by rational arguments, but by narrow-minded criticism from other dentists for many years. Eventually, science has started to consider their ideas. Their theory is that reduced chewing leads to various dental problems in modern societies that could improve if we used our teeth more. This would mean that the teeth still have the opportunity to move naturally, which means that we can get even rows of teeth and better posture if we obey the Darwinian effectiveness.
Less chewing gives more problems
Now when we don’t use the mouth as much as intended, the parts of the brain that control the jaw region are inactive. When some parts of the brain are bored while others work too much we feel unbalanced. The eyes get overstimulated, we get tired and get headaches. Between 5-15% of the adult population also have facial pain, jaw problems, or grind teeth at night. It may be due to frustrated jaws. JAWPEERis a new chewing tool to stimulate the mouth and jaws based on 10,000-year-old ideas. Hunter-gatherer chewed much more than us. Now when JAWPEER exists, you can chew more.
Did you know you can train your face by chewing? We go to the gym and train almost all the body’s muscles to become beautiful and feel good, but the muscles that matter most to beauty are left untrained. Most people care a lot about their appearance, so it’s a little strange that we don’t chew more. When we chew, we train several large muscles on the face, including the masseter which is the strongest muscle in the body.
The skin of the face is attached to muscles
The skin of the face is largely suspended in muscles. This means that the muscles of your face play a big role in how you look. As we get older, gravity takes its action and the skin starts hanging in corners, double chins, and cheek bags. The good news is that you can do something about it. The best gymnastics for the face is to chew, then the muscles get to work naturally. Ordinary chewing gum is not suitable because it provides so little chewing resistance. A carrot provides better chewing resistance and it is also healthy to eat, but you can not eat as many carrots as you like. The problem is that the skin is stuck in facial muscles. A better solution might be to train them with JAWPEER, a toolbox for chewing training.
Train your face by chewing JAWPEER
Chewing and facial yoga tackles the cause, unlike makeup, Botox, and facelift that only tackles the problems. Facial yoga or toning involves daily exercises without tools reminiscent of grimaces. Science has not proven that face yoga has an effect. Since chewing increases the facial muscle volume, it should be more effective than facial yoga. The muscles fill out the skin and hold it in place. The change is so fast that it is visible immediately after a workout. Then the masseter is swollen and filled with blood, which gives the jaw a more marked shape. When the muscle rests for a few hours, a lot of the blood disappears. JAW PEER is small and convenient to carry with you, unlike other jaw trainers. If you want to make a good first impression, you can train your face by chewing CHEW PEER before the date.
Dry mouth? No more. You can counteract it by chewing. Chewing increases saliva excretion. The more and harder we chew, the more saliva is produced in the mouth. Saliva is largely water, but it also contains other substances that prevent dehydration and are important to the body. The saliva is formed in more than 100 various glands that sit under the tongue, in the lower jaw, and at the ears. The glands specialize in various things. Therefore, we can have different saliva depending on what we need it for. Saliva has many different tasks:
Lubricates teeth and gums so that they do not dry out.
Ensures that the mouth’s PH value is just right.
Rinses away food residues and other things from the teeth.
Prevents bacteria and viruses from penetrating the body.
Dissolves flavorings in the food so they come into contact with our taste cells.
Starts digestion because it releases the encyclicals Amylase and Lipase.
Produces the hormone Leptin that makes us feel full.
CHEW PEER is an elastic chewing product that has more chewing resistance than ordinary chewing gum. This means that the mouth produces more saliva when using CHEW PEER. More saliva is beneficial both for the feeling of the mouth, dental health, and the body’s digestive system. Note that if the saliva is swallowed with gas bubbles, the stomach may react. A recommendation is to wait until the saliva bubbles burst before swallowing the saliva.
If you are really dry in your mouth then you need to chew on something that activates the salivary glands properly and then ordinary chewing gum is not good enough. Water may also not solve the problem, as it does not have the same lubricating and protective effect as saliva. Therefore, CHEW PEER is a better option. Dry mouth? No more. CHEW PEER is made to lubricate the oral cavity and thus perfect if you are dry in the mouth.
Healthy habits bring you happiness. Feeling good is perhaps the most important thing in life. The way to happiness and inner harmony is to acquire good habits. There are many methods that are aimed at increasing well-being by creating daily routines that meet our different needs. Science tells us that if we want to feel good, we should get into the habit of eating healthy food and exercising both the body and the brain.
By training the body we also benefit our brain, by increasing blood flow to the central nervous system. An important part of this training is to train the face. We practice it naturally every time we eat and chew, but many do not use their mouths enough. It has become common among young people to skip meals and just drink nutritional beverages instead. Dietitian Emma Lindblom does not recommend only liquid food:
“I think it’s preferable to eat food, especially when you’re still growing as well. Eating regular food, chewing, and filling up the stomach has its functions too, she says.
Chewing is a Healthy Habit
By chewing, we exercise the facial muscles and activate important nerves that stimulate the brain. Chewing can therefore be an easy way to increase well-being. But there is a limit to how much we can eat. Lucky for us we can use chewing gum as a compliment. Several studies compare people who chew gum with people who don’t chew. Statistically speaking, those who chew are less depressed, drink less alcohol, and more smokeless than non-chewers.
JAW PEER is a toolbox for elastic chewing gum. They developed to give more resistance so that we can train the face better. We can use JAWPEER and do other things at the same time. In addition to stimulating the brain and muscles, chewing makes the mouth busy. Therefore, it is difficult to smoke or drink at the same time. Since it is healthier to use your mouth to chew with than to take drugs, JAWPEER can help you create healthier habits which is the key to long-term happiness. Besides, it’s comfortable to experience the JAWPEER toolbox. Almost meditative. Let JAWPEER seduce you.
Is it possible to control your stress by chewing? Rats can cope with stress this way. Stress impairs the nerve signals that control the ability to think, remember, and learn. Our brains can be damaged by repeated stressful situations. In the worst case, the damages become permanent. For ethical reasons, therefore, no stress studies are made on humans. Instead, poor rats are stressed in the laboratory. The rat trials may be horrible, but if we can learn from them much is gained.
Rats can control their stress by chewing
A scientific study allowed two groups of rats to be exposed to very stressful situations. One group had to chew on a piece of wood to cope with the stress, while the other group had nothing to gnaw at. They then took blood samples of the rats at different times and measured how the stress had affected the ability of brain cells to transmit signals. Within 24 hours, the nerve signals were restored for the rats chewing during the stress, while the signal transmission remained low in the group not chewing.
Relationship between stress and obesity
The study in the rats showed that chewing had a positive impact on the rat brain’s ability to cope with stress. Chewing improves recovery after stress in rats may indicate that chewing is a good strategy for dealing with severe stress even in humans. However, we should not gnaw at pieces of wood because it can cause splinters to stick in the gums. Eating a lot of food is also not good. There is a link between stress and overweight. Since rats can cope with stress by chewing, it is perhaps not so strange if humans work the same. Many stressed people also get the urge to put food and sweets in their mouths, which can cause overweight and other health problems.
Now there is finally something to bite into that does not increase the waist circumference. JAW PEER is a product designed to help people who place high demands on themselves. People who feel they are on the verge of being burnt out can chew on a CHEW PEER to cope with stress. This avoids risking damage to the brain that tough stress can lead to. But if the alarm bells ring for burnout, you should not only acquire CHEW PEER, but also acquire healthier habits.
Studying and chewing works well together. It is not enough just to study hard, you also have to be able to focus on the degree assignment. It seems to be easier to focus if you chew at the same time. A scientific study showed that you increase the blood in parts of the frontal lobe when chewing. Therefore, those who chew may find it easier to focus. The brain can more easily shield things that interfere when you are concentrated. Therefore, it is smart for students to use CHEW PEER at important tests.
Chewing activates important parts of the brain
An area that is activated when chewing is called the prefrontal cortex. The area belongs to the most recently developed parts of the brain. It controls, among other things, working memory and spatial thinking. Chewing can thus improve working memory and at the same time increase concentration. Therefore, those who study have a lot to gain from chewing. From DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2008.03.033
Better study results if you chew
Students who chew in conjunction with tests do better according to a study. That’s why it’s good to have something to chew on when you’re studying. The study also examined whether the students experienced stress during graduation. The results showed that the students who chewed felt significantly better. In addition, they performed better in comparison. This means that chewing also seems to affect how we feel. Therefore, students are recommended to study and chew at the same time.

JAW PEER contains CHEW PEER
JAW PEER is a box with CHEW PEERand other accessories. CHEW PEER is made to chew on. There are different types of CHEW PEER; soft medium and hard. Soon they will also be available in different sizes. Accessories include a safety line and an instruction sheet. But soon there will also be oils to reduce the chewing sound. They have taste and other additives that can enhance the desirable effects of chewing. Two CHEW PEER’s are chewed with both chewing surfaces at the same time for maximum effect.
The softer and smaller variants are more suitable for relaxation and anti-stress. Bigger and harder CHEW PEER is better for jaw training and sports. The products are elastic and retain their shape and elasticity after chewing. Therefore, they are not disposable products but can be reused. All variants provide greater chewing resistance measured with Shore Durometer than regular chewing gum. Which variant you choose is a matter of taste. A starter kit with several different variants is made to try out. Then you’ll be able to subscribe to the one you like best. All variants make it easy to study and chew.
Chew and be more quick-witted in the brain! That was the message from a famous scientific study from 2013. Scientists investigated what happens in the brain when chewing. They noticed that the subjects reacted faster. Therefore, they put forward the hypothesis that chewing increases the speed of the head. While the subjects reacted faster, their blood flow in the brain increased. Especially in the parts that control motor capability. That would mean that we would react a little faster if we chew at the same time.
The 2013 study was the start of a wide range of scientific studies of the brain and chewing. The Stroop test is a psychological tool used to measure brain speed and flexibility. The test involves assessing whether a word is the same color as it says in another word. For example, it can say RED:BLUE and then you should press no. But if it says RED:BLUE, you should press yes. A shorter reaction time indicates higher performance. Chewing seems to improve results even on the Stroop test according to another study. This may be because the relevant part of the brain receives more oxygen: the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) which mainly affects the result. The research’s preliminary hypothesis is this: Chewing increases blood flow that increases oxygenation that shortens the reaction time.
JAW PEER made me more quick-witted
Coincidentally, I noticed how my own reaction time was affected when I chewed. I train the brain’s various functions with an app called Lumosity (recommended). The app includes various games that train working speed, logical thinking, attention, memory, problem solving, flexibility etc. The Stroop test is also included. One day when I was practicing Lumosity, I was chewing on my jaw coach at the same time. I noticed that I started chewing more intensely when I got stressed out. Suddenly I set new records in all games that required quick reactions. It made me think: If I get more quick-witted by chewing, so can others. This led me to start developing new functional chewing products. Now you can also try if chew peer makes you more quick-witted.
Increasing blood flow to the brain can be done in different ways. The blood supply through the carotid artery oxygenates the brain. When we chew on something that resists, the blood increases sharply up in the head. A product specially designed to provide good chewing resistance was used in a scientific examination. The results showed that blood flow increased by 7-28% in the examined parts of the brain when the test subjects chewed. The increase was greatest in the parts that control the body’s movements, between 25-28%.
CHEW PEER can be used to increase blood flow to the brain because the product is chewed with the molar teeth. Several scientific reports confirm that chewing with these teeth increases blood flow in the brain. There is also a positive relationship between oxygenation of the blood in the brain and muscle activity in the masseter muscle. A Japanese study concluded that the harder you chew with your chewing teeth, the more blood in your brain.
JAW PEER can also be used to train the jaw muscles. Competing jaw trainers are chewed with the front teeth But using the front teeth has the opposite effect on blood supply. If you bite harder, the blood flow in the relevant parts of the brain decreases. Therefore, one can not use these jaw trainers to achieve the effect.
So what is it that is so good about increasing the blood supply to the brain? The blood provides oxygen and nourishment. The risk of serious diseases decreases and you think better. Chewing makes you alert and alert. CHEW PEER can also provide a better mood and allow you to work more efficiently for shorter periods of time.
The risks of JAW PEER are few but they exist. CHEW PEER is made of silicone. The chemical spine in silicone is sand. Plastics, on the other hand, consists of carbon compounds. In addition, plastic often contains phthalates that cause cancer in laboratory animals. Commercial silicone has been around since the 1940s and is considered almost harmless. Today there is almost everywhere around us; make-up, oil, cars, computers, kitchen utensils, toys, pacifiers, and implants.
Large silicone molecules are harmless
CHEW PEER silicone consists of giant chains or nets of molecules. They are called polymers and are elastic. The polymers bind together of silicon (Si) found in sand, the second most common element of the Earth. Large silicon molecules are very inert. They do not mix with organic substances. If you accidentally swallow a piece of silicone, it goes straight through the body’s digestive system without any influence. For chemical substances, the smaller and lighter molecules are generally, the more dangerous. The material in CHEW PEER is controlled by an independent scientific testing laboratory. They analyze the material and check that no small harmful molecules are released during chewing.
All new CHEW PEER prototypes are continuously tested by the state-owned company Research Institue of Sweden, RISE. The October 2020 (201016) report shows that RISE does not find any linear L3-L6 or cyclic D3-D6 siloxanes in our material. Siloxanes are small molecules that can be stored in body tissue. In the analysis from 11 November 2020, we analyzed some of JAWPEER’s different models along with the “competitors” CHISELL and JAWLINER. Product A is CHISELL 2.0 REGULAR BITE medium and product B is JAWLINER Advanced.
We compare our products to the competitors on the chewing market by chromatography. The results show that their products are not as clean. The chromatograph shows a curve of the molecular size. High values on the left side of the curve mean that there are small molecules in the sample. All CHEW PEERs were cleaner than competitors’ products. Our Swedish producer once made a manufacturing mistake so the silicone got dirty. It is the grey product (No. 5) that we would never dream of selling. The chromatograph for number 5 is last in the document and the curve is not as “topped” as our usual products. However, this failed product still contains smaller small molecules than competitors A and B, which are the first in the document. This proves that JAW PEER is by far the cleanest on the market.
How accidents can be avoided
CHEW PEER is made of pure silicone that is tested by an independent lab and considered harmless. But JAW PEER has another obvious health risk: what happens if you choke? Choking is the biggest risk with JAW PEER. We have therefore made every effort to avoid suffocation accidents. Firstly, the texture of the material signal to the brain that it should not be swallowed. Secondly, the shape does not clog the trachea if it ends up in the throat. But accidents can happen. Therefore, a safety line of Dental Floss should be used if the chewer wants to be extra safe. The safety line is attached to CHEW PEER and elsewhere, for example in a buttonhole. You shouldn’t wear it as a necklace. Dental Floss is sharp. If the line gets stuck, it can damage the neck. Detailed instructions can be found in the instructions provided with the product.
Overwork warning
JAWPEER has many advantages, but beginners should watch up. It’s not good to chew too much if you’re untrained. Like other muscles, the chewing muscles can become overstretched. If you have jaw problems, you should be extra careful with chewing. Incorrect jaw joint load can exacerbate the problems. One in ten have problems with pains in the jaw or face. On the other hand, jaw problems may be due to the fact that the muscles are used too little. Immediately after meals, it is advisable to chew to clean the teeth and give the stomach saliva to digestion. Half an hour afterward, the stomach should be allowed to rest.
Important with good hygiene
JAW PEER is a storage box that is important for hygiene. It is important that CHEW PEER is stored safely between uses. They should not be exposed to bacteria or coronavirus. Saliva is bactericidal, but it is not helped if you take in the product with contaminated fingers. Therefore, JAW PEER contains safe handling instructions. The instructions provided with JAW PEER tell you how the product should be handled to avoid becoming a contagion. They also show how to eliminate the risk of suffocation.
