Actually, I've recently been studying the brain and have learnt that chewing anything - including gum relieves hunger pains.
Your brain has no direct link to the stomach therefore the brain does not know when you are experiencing hunger pains.
It does know, however, when the last time you ate was. The brain, believe it or not, counts the amount of times you chew something (chewing food alot makes you full faster)
Hope this helped

chewing gum activates your salivary glands and your stomach acid actually making you more hungry. If you are eating a balanced diet then simply drink a glass or two of tepid water. If you are not consuming at least 1200 calories a day EAT.

chewing gum actually,makes you more hungry. it sends saliva to the stomache and than your stomache thinks food is coming so it gets hungry.You have to put your body on a eating schedule. if you just eat whenever at any time , your more likey to get hungry but if you stick to a routine like eating every four hours, eventually and quickly , your stomache picks up on that schedule and adjusts.

try milk, ensure or atkins shakes. There is no way to get rid of hunger pains without putting something in your stomach. why do you refuse to eat? that's not a good way to lose weight. those pains you feel are your body screaming feed me. listen to your body and give your stomach some food. also try wheat bread or a piece of fruit. an apple or grapefruit won't make you fat.

Firstly I think I should say if you suffer hunger pains it's because your body is telling you that it needs fuel. The more you deny it the more damage you will do to your body so please don't starve yourself. If you have a problem with starving yourself or feel that you need to starve yourself I strongly urge you to seek professional help before you end up doing harm to yourself.
As for chewing gun... no, it does not get rid of the pain. From what I remember reading about the subject many years ago it usually made no difference and to some degree made it worse but you may want to seek a second opinion on this because I had read about it a very long time ago so am not 100% certain of my recollection of the details.

Hunger pains are there for a reason. If you eat small, regular meals they shouldn't be such a problem.
Chewing gum on an empty stomach is a bad idea. Chewing makes the stomach think it's about to receive food, so it produces hydrochloric acid amongst a couple of other things so that it can break down the food. If nothing appears, it will start to work on the stomach lining. Do this for long enough and you'll be at risk of developing a stomach ulcer.
If you need a quick and temporary fix for hunger pains, try drinking water, but you shouldn't ignore hunger pains. If you do, your body will switch to famine mode and start to store calories, making it harder to lose weight.
