Hi Larry,

I wasn't aware that there was that much saliva produced daily, however, I am painfully aware of how much we depend on that saliva when we try to eat.

When my Dad was fighting Cancer back in '92-'94, part of the Radiation Treatment destroyed his Saliva Glands and he was therefore never able to eat normally again.  For the remaining two years of his life, he had to consume large amounts of water, whenever he tried to eat, to replenish the lost moisture and digestive properties from the missing saliva.  It never ceases to amaze me that God has a wonderful use for every little gland He created in our bodies, no matter how small or how ugly.

Thank you for sharing so many interesting and useful facts with us.

Have A Beautiful Day,

 

“There may be trouble all around, but I am calling you to a place of peace. Be still and know that I am God. Come to Me, and I will give you wisdom, strength, and grace for everything you face." Psalm 46:10
