They're really small but they DO count

Any calories you take in count. However, I don't think the few calories in sugar-free gum will do much (if any) harm. Of course, if you chew a huge amount, then, yeah, it's going to add up.

It depends on how much you chew. If you chew like one piece it will be 5 calories, if you chew 5 pieces a day it will be 25 calories, and if you chew a whole pack per day it will be 75 calories. So as long as you do not chew so much it really wont have that much affect on your calorie intake.

Not really only what you swollow - so you will get a little bit of it as you will take some of it in but not much at all.

not really, because even though they have (MINIMUM) calories, all the chewing you do, it burns those calories. :)
