Saliva is, basically, filtered blood. The salivary glands sieve the blood, keeping back the red blood cells, which are needed in our arteries, not our mouth.
Imagine. Imagine being 46 years old and learning this for the first time. Remember this the next time you're with a lover, the wine is flowing and a Michael Bolton track starts playing on the radio... *Or Bublé

“Chris Eubank [Talking while signing the contract]: I don’t hate the man, I just want his WBO middleweight title. I pray that I have enough dignity not to hate the man. Hate doesn’t come into it for me. Hate destroys the game and makes it look brutal and that’s why a lot of people don’t take to it. I don’t hate the man, I want to take the man’s title. I intend to prove I am a better fighter than the man, which I am. Nigel Benn: I personally do hate him. I personally do hate him.”

“the time of writing, there is only one other probiotic bacteria species that is as well researched as the two mentioned above: E. coli Nissle 1917. This strain of E. coli was first isolated from the faeces of a soldier returning from the Balkan War. All the soldier’s comrades had suffered severe diarrhoea in the Balkans, but he had not. Since then, many studies have been carried out to show that this bacterium can help with diarrhoea, gastrointestinal disease, and a weakened immune system. Although the soldier died many years ago, scientists continue to breed his talented E. coli in medical laboratories and package it up for sale in pharmacies so it can work its wonders in other people’s guts.”

“In my experience, a mentor doesn’t necessarily tell you what to do, but more importantly, tells you what they did or might do, then trusts you to draw your own conclusions and act accordingly. If you succeed, they’ll take one step back, and if you screw up, they’ll take one step closer. Whatever it is they teach you…pass it on.”
