	What's Spit?
		Saliva is a clear liquid that's made in your mouth 24 hours a day, every day.
		Without saliva, a grilled cheese sandwich would be dry and difficult to gulp down.
		Sometimes a person may not have enough saliva, but this is usually the result of certain medicines or treatments, some kinds of diseases, or old age.

	Saliva Summary
		Saliva is secreted by a number of glands including the salivary glands that include mucous glands, parotid, submaxillary (mandibular), and sublingual glands.
		Saliva, often informally known as spit, is the moist, clear, and usually somewhat frothy substance produced in the mouths of some animals, including humans.
		A common belief is that saliva contained in the mouth has natural disinfectants, which leads people to believe it is beneficial to "lick their wounds".

	Ovulation Saliva Fertility Predictor
		Saliva is the most accessible body fluid and easiest to obtain.
		Place a spontaneously produced sample of saliva (or cervical mucus) on the slide and reinsert the eyepiece/slide assembly into the instrument housing.
		The saliva sample, obtained by licking the slide once, can be affected by smoking, alcohol or food consumption, therefore it is recommended to abstain from these substances for at least two (2) hours prior to testing.

	Saliva hormone testing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Saliva is proving to be an excellent diagnostic medium to measure free steroid hormones.
		Saliva is a natural ultrafiltrate of blood, and steroids not bound by carrier proteins freely diffuse into saliva.
		Since the concentration of carrier proteins in saliva is extremely low, measurements in saliva for the most part represent the free fraction of the hormone.

	About the Saliva Test Kit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Experts agree that diagnosis and prevention of disease using saliva assays is about to enter a period of explosive growth as more and more laboratories and medical practitioners gear up for this new technology.
		Unlike blood testing, saliva analysis is looking at the cellular level (the biologically active compounds) and saliva is therefore truly representative of what is clinically relevant.
		Saliva analysis is a diagnostic tool that will often enable the doctor to identify the actual cause of many health problems and diseases.

	Saliva Q&A (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Saliva is produced in response to reflexes triggered by taste stimulation and movements of the jaw muscles, joints and pressure on the teeth due to chewing.
		Consequently, stimulated saliva is an effective medium for replacing the lost minerals in enamel and repairing the early stages of tooth decay.
		Saliva, especially stimulated saliva, is very important in maintaining a neutral pH in plaque and in the oral cavity.

	Saliva hormone testing Townsend Letter for Doctors and Patients - Find Articles
		Saliva originates from the salivary glands located under the tongue and along the sides of the mouth.
		Saliva is composed of a complex mixture of mucins, enzymes, antibodies, electrolytes, and hormones, all of which serve to begin the process of digestion and protect the oral mucosa.
		Hence, saliva provides a convenient diagnostic fluid from which to monitor, noninvasively, the bioavailable fraction of steroid hormones circulating in the bloodstream and entering tissues.

	Saliva Hormone Testing
		Saliva testing is a simple, accurate way to determine your "free" or bioavailable hormone levels.
		Saliva progesterone levels several times higher than 0.5 ng/ml are justified in certain situations.
		The progesterone found in the saliva obviously was blood-borne, but it should be clear that the portion of the blood carrying the progesterone was not the plasma (serum) but, rather, was via red blood cells.

	Saliva Testing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Steroid hormones present in saliva are in their free, biologically active form.
		Because the concentration of steroid hormones is significantly lower in saliva than it is in serum, modifications to the assays are necessary to change the dynamic range of the assay and improve the sensitivity.
		Depending of the particular steroid hormone, concentrations in saliva are approximately 2-8% of the concentrations found in plasma.

	Salivary Glands and Saliva
		Secretion of saliva is under control of the autonomic nervous system, which controls both the volume and type of saliva secreted.
		Flow of saliva diminishes considerably during sleep, allow populations of bacteria to build up in the mouth -- the result is dragon breath in the morning.
		The dripping of saliva seen in rabid animals is not actually a result of excessive salivation, but due to pharyngeal paralysis, which prevents saliva from being swallowed.

	BBC - Health - Ask the doctor - Saliva - excessive
		You may simply have very powerful reflexes in your salivary ducts which squirt out a normal amount of saliva in a large jet from one of the several salivary glands around the inside of the mouth.
		Saliva plays an important part in tasting food, digesting it and cleaning the mouth afterwards.
		When the flow of saliva dries up, as it does in several conditions including some of the changes of ageing, these normal functions can be severely disrupted.

	Your Digestive System and How It Works (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Saliva produced by these glands contains an enzyme that begins to digest the starch from food into smaller molecules.
		The digestible carbohydrates are broken into simpler molecules by enzymes in the saliva, in juice produced by the pancreas, and in the lining of the small intestine.
		Starch is digested in two steps: First, an enzyme in the saliva and pancreatic juice breaks the starch into molecules called maltose; then an enzyme in the lining of the small intestine (maltase) splits the maltose into glucose molecules that can be absorbed into the blood.

		Despite being an unknown act at the time, Saliva -- which was among those chosen from 6,000 entries nationwide -- won the Memphis competition in January 1997 and then came out victorious in the semifinals, which were held in Austin, Texas the following month.

		In addition to this, saliva is responsible for depositing salivary pellicle that covers the entirety of the tooth surfaces.
		Today, it is believed that the average person produces approximately 700mL of saliva per day, which is much less than was once thought.
		Human saliva contains also salivary acid phosphatases A+B (EC3.1.3.2), N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase (EC3.5.1.28), NAD(P)H dehydrogenase-quinone (EC1.6.99.2), salivary lactoperoxidase (EC1.11.1.7), superoxide dismutase (EC1.15.1.1), glutathione transferase (EC2.5.1.18), class 3 aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC1.2.1.3), glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (EC5.3.1.9), and tissue kallikrein (EC3.4.21.35).

	Excessive saliva during pregnancy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		So if you suddenly seem to have a lot more saliva in your mouth, it may be because you're actually producing more saliva or because you're swallowing less or a combination of the two.
		The acid sensors in your esophagus then trigger your salivary glands to produce saliva that has an increased concentration of bicarbonate, which is alkaline.
		It may be small comfort at this point, but besides neutralizing gastric acid, saliva performs a lot of other important functions, including lubricating your mouth and producing enzymes that aid in digestion.
