Mucus in the stomach protects the gastrointestinal cells from the damage that gastric juice can cause. Mucus in the stomach is rich in bicarbonate which is an alkaline compound helps in lubricating and protecting the stomach. Gastric juices are highly acidic and, without this mucus, the acid can destroy the cells and tissues in the stomach.
Take a look at the molecules, the cells that make them, and the function of the different components: 1  Water - Water doesn't affect the pH of the stomach, but it does serve to provide enough liquidity that food, enzymes, and acids can readily mix together. 2  Mucous - Mucous (or mucus) is produced by cells in the mouth.
