<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a composition for the oral cavity having sialogogic actions without a limitation on seasoning because of no specific irritation, tasting and flavoring. <P>SOLUTION: The composition for the oral cavity including 2-methylbutyric acid or/and acetic acid promotes secretion of saliva after completing chewing even when the content of the 2-methylbutyric acid or/and acetic acid is an ultra-trace amount so as not to feel the tasting. A candy, a gummy candy, a piece of chewing gum, a troche, a chewable tablet, etc., are preferred as the composition for the oral cavity. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
