Anthu ambiri mwachibadwa amagwirizanitsa ntchentche ndi zinthu zonyansa, koma kwenikweni, ili ndi ntchito zambiri zofunika pa thanzi lathu. Imatsata zomera zathu zofunika za m'matumbo ndikudyetsa mabakiteriya. Imaphimba mbali zonse zamkati mwa thupi lathu ndipo imakhala ngati chotchinga kuchokera kunja. Imatithandiza kudziteteza ku matenda opatsirana.

Izi zili choncho chifukwa ntchofuyo imakhala ngati fyuluta yolola kuti mabakiteriya alowe kapena kutuluka, ndipo mabakiteriya amadya shuga wa mucus pakati pa chakudya.
