I don't recommend eating either of them, just talking about mouth wash.

>Even those who had coronary artery disease at baseline showed a marginally significant benefit (0.50 [0.24-1.06]; p = 0.07).
This statement is wrong on multiple levels, I can't believe Nature would not catch that in the abstract.
- They don't clarify if they are referencing statistical significance;
- It is not significant at p = 0.07
- It is likely not even near significant if they accounted for multiple comparisons (p-hacking).
- Under the hypothesis test framework, things can't be marginally significant. It is either significant or it isn't.

Gingivitis is a major risk factor for rheumatoid arthritis.
I think the reason oral health is so crucial is because your teeth are connected to your bloodstream for nourishment (at least if they are vital teeth) and it’s extremely easy for bacteria etc in your mouth to enter your bloodstream directly. That’s a unique situation compared to other places on your body.
You can get all kinds of cardiovascular viruses/infections this way. My uncle got pericarditis this way.
If you have an abscessed tooth, treating it quickly is extremely important. An abscessed tooth can give you sepsis very quickly.
Anyway, only tangentially related, but there are a lot of anatomical issues that make your oral health really crucial to your overall health.

So only a few months of COVID is included here. I doubt it did have a significant effect as the pandemic only got big past march.

That's not what the article is about. I've never blamed vegan substitutes for not being legally able to call themselves 'chicken substitute' etc.
Laws that prevent misrepresentation of your product are good, but I feel like your should be allowed to explicitly state that your product tries to mimic something else.
