Drool is one of the body fluids in the human body. In fact, drool has a very significant effect on the human body, not only killing cancer cells, but also having eight major health effects on the human body. In particular, men's health is more vulnerable to damage. Let's understand the role of saliva together.
Nutritional composition and function of saliva
Saliva, commonly known as "saliva," is secreted by the salivary glands. Almost all of them are swallowed and absorbed into the bloodstream through the gastrointestinal tract. In recent years, scientists have discovered that saliva is an indispensable "role" in maintaining normal life activities in the human body. Swallowing your saliva every day can promote beauty, cure illness, and prolong life. It is also an important anti cancer weapon that cannot be ignored.
It is mainly secreted by the salivary glands. The human body has multiple salivary glands, with small salivary glands distributed in the mucous membranes of various parts of the oral cavity, including four types of glands: lips, cheeks, tongue, and palate. Large salivary glands include parotid, sublingual, and submandibular glands. The parotid gland, submandibular gland, and sublingual gland are the main salivary secreting organs. While secreting, they are controlled by the cerebral cortex, and can also be affected by diet, environment, age, and emotional or salivary gland disorders. It is normal for humans to secrete 1000 to 1500 milliliters of saliva per day. Modern medical research shows that more than 99% of saliva is composed of water, but the remaining 1% contains multiple trace elements such as potassium, sodium, calcium, phosphorus, and more than 500 proteins.
"Qi is a life prolonging ganoderma, and jin is a medicine for prolonging life." The most attractive substance contained in saliva was the parotid hormone discovered by the late Japanese physician Akira Ogata. This hormone is secreted by the parotid gland, one of the three major salivary glands, and many scholars believe it is a "rejuvenating" hormone.
Parotid hormone can increase the vitality of muscles, blood vessels, connective tissue, bone cartilage, and teeth, especially strengthening the elasticity of blood vessels, and improving the vitality of connective tissue. As long as the parotid gland hormone is filled, the functions of blood vessels, skin interstitium, and connective tissue will be strengthened, and the elasticity of the skin will be maintained. However, when a person reaches middle age, the parotid gland begins to atrophy, and the hormone secreted gradually decreases. Frequent pharyngeal movements can delay the atrophy of the parotid gland.
Generally speaking, people with strong physiques secrete abundant and vigorous saliva. In the elderly and infirm, there is insufficient secretion of saliva, often resulting in dry mouth and tongue, dry skin, daily physical decline, tinnitus and hard of hearing, facial loss of gloss, constipation, and other conditions. Using mouthwatering regimen can restore youth, combat aging, and prolong aging.
Saliva has eight magical effects on human health
Digestive function: Saliva can "bind" chewed food into "food balls", facilitating swallowing. At the same time, saliva contains amylase, which can decompose the starch in food into maltose, not only making people feel sweet, but also allowing food to enter the digestive process in the mouth.
