ardillacid Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Does chewing gum violate the hour long fast prior to receiving the Eucharist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Adam Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Yes it does. If it is not water or medication, or unless you are dispensed for another valid reason, by chewing gum you would need to refrain from receiving. I have even heard a priest say chewing your nails would violate the fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
