Answered by The Community. Making the world better, one answer at a time. Mucus is secreted from glands in goblet cells in the lining of the throat. Cilia (tiny hair-like structures) then brush the mucus in an upwards motion to the nose and mouth.
NOT ALL MUCUS IS BAD. Healthy mucus is a clear, slippery, lubricating secretion, used to protect mucus membranes along the digestive, respiratory, urinary and reproductive tracts. Unhealthy mucus is cloudy, thick, and sticky.Mucus is secreted to stop irritants, pollutants, or carcinogenic compounds, created by putrefying, undigested food residues. It's like a blanket of protection. Certain foods such as milk and bread cause an increase of mucus secretions.These foods have large protein molecules (casein and gluten) which are difficult to digest and are more prone to putrefaction, and may be toxic or an irritant to the body.r. Robert Gray, a nutritionist, determined, through intensive testing that certain foods are mucus-forming and others are mucus cleansing. The foods shown to cause the most mucus are: Dairy products, white flour, sugar, eggs, peanuts and fats.
