Mucus protects the walls of the digestive system from acidic digestive juices which would erode them. The movement of a thin layer of mucus acts like a continuously moving conveyer belt, which carries microbes, viruses and other undesirable particles out of the body. If there is a deficiency, then we have the danger of ulcers.

Pepsin ,( an enjyme which is used for digestion of protein) works in the presence of HCL acid. Mucus is a slippery fluid which prevents the contact of walls of stomach from HCL which would erode them.
