good for digestion?

[Georgie]

Ok, now no laughing out there. This is a legitimate question. Often, after a big holiday meal, my mother would serve creme de menthe cordials because she claimed it helped to settle one's stomach. I think a slowly sipped glass of Port after dinner does the much the same thing. Is there any truth to this, or is it just wishful thinking on my part? Sort of like drinking for medicinal purposes...All right...I know hear laughing! Stop it. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/tongue.gif[/img]
