American Greeks are just great, aren't they? Vote, vote, vote!

Now purveyed as a panacea for ulcers (Helicobacter pyloris, look out! .... Oh yeah, Classification! Another Greek invention, thank you Aristotle!) and tooth hygiene!
Is there a connection between the reduction of dental plaque and healing of peptic ulcers when enjoying this age-old mastication?
