  • Tears wash out foreign bodies which enter the eye. In addition, tears contain a substance called lysozyme which has an antibacterial function and works to prevent microbial invasion and infection.  
  • Saliva protects against infection, especially via the innate immune system. This mechanism is an important first-line protection against bacterial and viral infection
  • The mucociliar escalator is within the conducting airways and is composed of mucus and cilia that transfer the mucus up and out of the lungs where it can be removed by coughing or swallowing,

Whereas HCL helps in the digestion process.
