We developed a chewing gum containing folate, whose effects for folate supply and emesis improvement were analyzed. A cross-sectional study on pregnant women in early pregnancy who had presented emesis was conducted. A gum containing folate or an identical gum without folate was given to women at early gestation for two weeks. Emesis signs were estimated using a emesis scoring system. As results, the chewing gum containing folate would be effective for emesis improvement for early gestational women.
