Yes I have also heard it helps with the flow of saliva which makes sense as keeping Chi flowing is beneficial.
In TCM two Meridians are seen as Master Meridians, the Conception ( Yin ) and the Governing ( Yang ). The Conception runs in the front of the body and ends at the tip of the tongue, Governing runs at the back and ends at the Papilla . When they are both in contact Yin/Yang flow in complete harmony.
Bodhidharma believed balanced Meridians held the secret to vitality and energy, wise Man
