Chewing Gum does not directly help digest food faster, but it can stimulate saliva production, which aids in the digestive process. Increased saliva can help break down food more effectively as it contains enzymes that begin the digestion of carbohydrates. Additionally, the act of chewing may promote gastric motility, potentially helping food move through the digestive system more efficiently. However, the overall impact on digestion speed is minimal.
