| | | question about vomiting
If we produce chloridric acid in our stomachs, how come we don't get serious burns in our mouths when we vomit? |

| | | Because it is a comparatively weak acid and we are sick very rarely, and generally there is a rush of saliva before you are sick that coats your mouth and protects it. If however you vomit daily, the damage caused by the acid builds up and strips the enamel off your teeth and damages the lining of the mouth and the oesophagus. |
