What is the color of saliva after meal on pH paper?
The color of saliva after eating will depend on the acidity or basity of the food that has just been eaten.

You've heard all the tv ads for soap & whatnot? Well this soap is supposed to be "PH neutral" (the same as your skin)... therefore it stands to reason that if your skin has a PH of 5.5 and your saliva does not react with it, then your saliva is also of PH 5.5 or thereabouts.
