While human saliva does contain some antibacterial properties, it is not recommended to use saliva for wound healing due to the risk of introducing harmful bacteria from the mouth into the wound. It's best to clean a cut with soap and water, apply an antiseptic, and cover it with a bandage to prevent infection and promote proper healing.
