If we didn't have water vapour in our breath, we'd be dead as we need water in our lungs in order to help absorb oxygen from the air as we inhale.

Saliva is different in that it contains the enzyme amylase which converts starch to sugar as the beginning part of our digestive system.

Condensation in the bore is usually related to the temperature of the instrument and your surroundings with colder temperatures causing more condensation to form in the bore compared to warmer temperatures.
