Stillwater, OK startup aims to create calm during pandemic
C
ollege students Walter Bowser and Will Petty launched Bubble Calm, a functional chewing gum that relieves stress.
A recent winner of two Oklahoma business competitions, Bubble Calm catches the eye of many seeking to promote relaxation during these turbulent times. Active ingredients; valerian root, chamomile and gamma-aminobutyric acid create the perfect combination in providing a much-needed mental release.
If you are experiencing anxiety, it speeds up the GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) receptors in the brain and Bubble Calm can help reduce that speed, Bowser said. The convenience of providing aid at the onset of stress has never existed in this form. An everyday product was transformed into a functional method of stimulating relaxation. The genesis of this product is something Walter and I literally bounced off of each other one weekend when we decided we wanted to create something no one else has, Petty said.
Bubble Calm feels it necessary to do its part during this crisis. Far too many are working through their own personal tribulations, which has now been compounded due to the uncertainty surrounding many aspects of our lives. For each pack sold throughout the month of April, Bubble Calm will donate a pack to healthcare workers serving Stillwater Medical Center, Berkeley Heights Volunteer Rescue Squad and other organizations.
