Dear Vickster, Thank you for contacting the Wrigley Company to request information. We sincerely appreciate your interest in our Company and brands. While some breath-freshening gum and mints help mask bad breath, Eclipse® gum and mints will be the first in the U.S. to include magnolia bark extract (MBE) – a natural ingredient proven to help kill the germs that cause bad breath. For Wrigley to offer this natural germ-killing ingredient is a breakthrough in the breath-freshening gum and mint categories. Now people will get the best of both worlds in their favorite Eclipse gum and mints – great taste and the ability to help kill germs that cause bad breath. What is magnolia bark extract? • MBE is a natural antibacterial agent isolated from the stem bark of Magnolia officinalis and is used in traditional Chinese medicines for the treatment of fever, headache, pain relief and stress reduction. • But unlike antimicrobial agents found in mouthwash, it can be fully incorporated into food-based mints and chewing gum for killing bacteria that cause bad breath. When will this product be available and in what flavors?Eclipse gum will begin appearing on retail shelves this summer in a variety of flavors including: • Spearmint• Winterfrost• Polar Ice• Peppermint• Fresh & Cool Eclipse Mints will be available in September 2008 in the following flavors: • Spearmint• Peppermint• Winterfrost • Cinnamon Inferno We hope this information has been helpful. If you have any additional questions or comments please feel free to contact us at 1-800-WRIGLEY Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. CST. Sincerely, Susan GarnerConsumer Affairs Representative Please do NOT reply to this email.

Do you know if this will be available in the UK?

Hi all,

I managed to email the wrigley company and guess what they told me.

No that they have no plans to sell the eclipse gum in the uk.

Looks like the extra gum is too popular in uk.

Sorry all. Unless you know someone travelling from the USA who can send a whole load for you so that you can stock up.

Extra gum does nothing for bad breath. Waste of time chewing it.

I don't think that it works that good anyway. Your not really missing anything.

Hi Mizz,

Just a quick question did you use the specific Eclipse gum containing Magnolia Bark Extract? If it does not say it on the wrapper then it is not the correct germ killing gum. Also, the germ killing gum should say manufactured 2008 more recent on the wrapper.

I got some eclipse gum manufactured 2006 but it does not say Magnalia Bark Germ Killing action on the wrapper. Apparantly that is the one we should get. Or is it that you already got the one with magnolia but not really that good.

Let me know.
