lifeasiknowit Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Hey everyone. Um, I know you're probably sick of seeing yet another thread about breast envy, but I found out about something today and was wondering if any of you have heard of it. I have a friend who imports a lot of stuff from the States and he showed me this bottle of gum called B2up gum (or bust up gum) that was created in Japan. Apparently, this gum increases bust size, as well as improves the condition of your hair and skin. Anyways, my friend is importing this stuff to sell and before officially selling the stuff, he gave some bottles to interested friends and he told me that they have seen results. He imports mostly things like electronics and doesn't really focus on selling the gum because it's not an easy thing to market without insulting women. So, I'm skeptical, and I know many will say it's just a bunch of bull****e. It's sounds really bizarre and ridiculous, but I did a little research and it sounds credible. According to research that has been done, most women see positive results on hair and skin and about 30% of women see no changes in breast size, which means 70% see a little to a significant amount of change. How does B2UP Bust Up gum work? The essential nutrient (Pueraria Mirifica) in B2UP gum is absorbed through the skin inside your mouth as you chew. -Capsule or tablet based supplements normally are taken with water and must pass through the digestive system. Though this method delivers a large amount of the supplement, your body will naturally eliminate a significant portion of it. Since B2UP gum and candy are ingested through the mouth membrane without water, more of the essential supplement is delivered to and maintained in your body. Here's a link that provides details: http://news.yahoo.com/s/prweb/20051101/bs_prweb/prweb304463_2 I am tempted to purchase the gum and don't want to until I feel sure.

Author lifeasiknowit Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 I have to add that the gum is so popular now, that they are thinking of having it available in convenience stores in the Uk and they already are in Japan. Weird. Link to post Share on other sites
Outcast Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Please, please quit hunting for bust improvement 'miracles'. NOTHING will grow your bust but food, age, and pregnancy. According to research that has been done by whom? Do you not realize that they can post any sort of bogus 'research' information on the Web for gullible people to read and believe? Unless the information is from an organization like NIH or WebMD or a reputable hospital or clinic - do NOT believe it. Just because someone says he's a doctor doesn't mean he is or that he's any good. And just because millions of people may buy it doesn't mean they know what they're doing!!! There are no magic potions for anything. You have to realize that these ads are meant to suck in people not smart enough to realize that they are scams. Don't be one of them.

Author lifeasiknowit Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 I just came across a website that sells it that basically admitted that results are not permanent. I knew it sounded too good to be true. It is recommended that you continue to chew the gum after desired results at half the dose, like twice a day instead of four times a day. I think it's possible for your breasts to return to their originall size once you stop chewing the gum. I don't like the idea of having to chew this gum for life. I think the linked article to yahoo.news points out where the research was done. BBC news also has an article on it. Did you read the link?Research does admit that not all will see significant results. 30% won't see any and they admit it all depends on a person's chemistry etc. I believe that the gum might work, but what's the point if I have to continue taking it everyday for the rest of my life? That's like being dependent on a drug, but this time it would be gum! Link to post Share on other sites
Outcast Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Oh girl. Your boobs are not balloons to inflate and deflate with gum!!!! C'mon!!! We're talking flesh, muscle, fat, not airbags. How could it possibly only inflate only one part of you and not your whole body? Honestly, you have to think more critically about this sort of thing!!! Link to post Share on other sites
Author lifeasiknowit Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 How could it possibly only inflate only one part of you and not your whole body? um, did you not read my original post or the link? They're not saying this works for everyone, but for some. The gum contains hormones that simulate the oestrogen hormone along with other stuff, read the link. The hormones are chemically very similar to oestrogen combined with other hormones. And I didn't buy it the second I heard about it, so I'm not completely naive. Of course, I was and still am skeptical that it would work for me, but it doesn't mean that it doesn't work period (ie. for others). As stated before It has been proven to work (not for everyone- only about 70% saw any difference), but you have to continue taking it, as the results are not permanent. If I was not thinking critically about it, then why did I come here to ask? Why did I try to find out more information about it? Why did I not immediately purchase it? There's a good chance it works but only if you continue taking it which makes sense. You stop chewing the gum (which releases the hormones through your skin membrane in your mouth), you stop getting the hormones that create breast growth. If science today can clone sheep and dogs, I don't doubt that it can't do this, although it's not perfect. Your boobs are not balloons to inflate and deflate with gum!!!! C'mon!!! I have no boobs to inflate anyways. I don't desire big boobs, I just want boobs. And if you did not notice, but I expressed in my last post that I find it dumb to have to chew this gum forever just to maintain the results. hence: my choice is to not buy it.

Author lifeasiknowit Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 I feel as if I'm being lectured here and that I have to defend myself. I ended up finding the information I needed to make my decision but it wasn't from here and now I'm fine. Sorry If I sound grouchy but I'm sick, had an average of 5 hrs sleep in 3 days, and feel crappy in general. I'm having an ugly day. Link to post Share on other sites
Outcast Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I'm not being snarky - it's just I worry that folks like you are too easily led. Estrogen is not your friend - it's what breast cancer lives on. So unless you absolutely have to, you don't want to be adding estrogen to your diet. There has been disputes about whether plant estrogens are beneficial or benign but they're found in foods like tofu and soy milk and if anyone eats a lot of tofu and soy, it's folks in Japan, no? So theoretically they should already have burgeoning bosoms. Breast development is mostly genetic and partly due to your weight. Yes, hormones can make the boobs grow - but at what cost? Really, spend the money on a therapist who'll help you quit worrying about this. Link to post Share on other sites
whichwayisup Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Man, too much estrogen gives me migraines... Actually I am happy with my boob size...I wouldn't want to be any bigger, I mean what if I chewed the gum and woke up one day a DDD?? Crap, I wouldn't be able to get out of bed considering my build in general! LOL! Life, talk to someone and really weigh in the positives and negatives of a breast enlargement. Maybe right now you feel you want it, but 10, 15 years from now you could regret it. I am not sure of your size, but there are bras now-a-days which enhance the boobs to look bigger.
