What does saliva also do

Saliva is a substance formed in the salivary glands. This substance helps to soften your food when chewing and make it easier for you to swallow. Hope this helped.

In addition to lubricating food for easier swallowing and to protecting against bacteria entering the mouth with food, saliva contains a large amount of amylase. And then starch and glycogen in your meals are broken into oligosaccharides by amylase . After the oligosaccharides entering the small intestine, they are completely decomposed by amylase, and disaccharidase. Finally, the monosaccharide is absorbed by the small intestine.
