    I’m pretty sure the primary enzymes in saliva are amalyse and lipase. They start to break down starches and fats respective. You’d probably needs something that breaks down protiens to have any effect on your skin.

    Or be mashed into a pulp so the lipase could get to work…

      FWIW, saliva contains epidermal growth factor, which is actually good for the skin. It’s one of the reasons the insides of our mouths heal so quickly.

        Which is also why animals lick their wounds, I believe.

    That depends. Are you made of cotton candy?

    Your mouth is full of spit 100% of the time and you aren’t melting.

    It’s not stomach acid. Hell, you can sort of use spit as lube, I am sure it’s fine.
