anything you swallow goes to the stomach, the intesines and is passed out of the body, no way to get to the liver or anywhere else.

No because the gum will be enclosed inside the stomach wall and intestines throughout the entire digestion process. The contents of the average person's stomach doesn't come in contact with any other organs of the body because the stomach is enclosed. There's nothing to worry about, love.

No. The lungs and liver are not connected to the gastrointestinal tract. Rather they are on a different (though connected) system.
Gum goes from your mouth to your stomach, from your stomach to the small intestine, and from there to the large intestine, which ends with the colon and rectum. You can guess the rest.

No, actually when you swallow gum it goes pretty much straight into your stomach were the acids digest it. it's pretty much like any other kind of food you eat. it all gets broken down the same.

No. There is no food that wraps around your lungs or liver...

No. It goes into your stomach, then into your intestinal tract, and out the other end just like all other solid waste that is not absorbed during digestion.

I wouldn't think so since it probably gets stuck in your esophagus and that goes down to your stomach. Food doesn't travel through your body until after it is digested.

It stays in your digestive system and exits the usual way of other solid foods. It does not leave your digestive system, period. That's you throat, stomach, small and large intestines and the exit hole.

No, it goes through just like everything else, but spit it into a tissue anyways, don't swallow it.

No, it goes to your stomach and then through your digestive tract just like food.
