The saliva consists of lysozyme, an enzyme and antibody IgA, which are bacteriostatic and antimicrobial in nature. The Gandush and Kavala increase the pressure in the mouth, which stimulates the stretch reflex i.e. the presso receptors resulting in stimulation of the salivary nuclei in brain stem. This results in increased activity of parasympathetic motor fibers of facial and glossopharyngeal nerves and increases the salivary output, which is further stimulated by the chemical constituents stimulating the oral chemo receptors and hence the Gandush and Kavala maintains and cures the oral environment.[100]
