Showerthought: would shining the ball with phlegm be considered ball-tampering?

Showerthought: if shining the ball with saliva containing mint lollies is considered tampering due to the addition of sugars, would shining it with phlegm be considered tampering also since the mucus in phlegm contains lots of carbohydrates (probably even more so than the amount dissolved from a lolly)? And if it is tampering, then how do you draw the line in allowable vs. non-allowable body fluids since a player could potentially eject saliva thickened with mucus to shine the ball?
