My husband chews brown paper towelsfrom the bathrooms of stores. He says he chew!
Question: Is there anyone else that does this? If yes, what are there
reasons? Is there something in the towels that his body could
be craving? Please help me!
Answers:
This is called "pica." This is real unusual. You might suggest a psychological evaluation to him. I don't think there would be a deficiency that would be corrected by this activity although this is a possibility.
Other Answers:
Do they have to be from stores? If he is particular about the source of the towels, he's knutso. If he just likes the taste, maybe he's less knutso.
chewing does relieve stress, but maybe you should buy him some gum
everytime he does it WHACK him on the nose with a rolled up newspaper that should solve ya problem
I have never heard of this for relieving stress. I am going to go and try it. It sounds a bit gross, since you are saying it is from public washrooms, and you never know who has been handling the paper. But likely, the paper likely has something his body needs. I used to eat dirt. like by the shovel full.
