Super sAliva

I'll tell you what we need. A chemical that turns saliva into a poison/virus/germ detector. If there's a dangerously poisonous substance or germ in my food or drink, then my saliva creates a strong foul taste in the mouth that forces me to spit out the food immediately. It never gets into into the stomach to be digested and cause damage.

First, the chemical must be harmless like a vaccine with no bad side-effects. If it can be made to destroy any poison inadvertently swallowed even better.

what if the soap or gel we use to wash our hands and face could also be used to stop us from having to shave every day? I don't know if it's possible but I was thinking that if a chemical substance existed or could be invented that can stop the hair on the beard from growing when you apply it to the skin, then we could control the growth of the beard just by washing our hands and face. This way we could shave time and save hair!

do you think that if it was possible to invent such a harmless chemical, then razor companies might try to stop such research because it would reduce their profits or drive them out of business?
