Mint alleviates bloat
If uncomfortable bloat after meals is your biggest holiday GI bother, savoring a peppermint candy (or sipping peppermint tea) could relieve your symptoms in as little as 30 minutes.

Credit goes to a peppermint compound (menthol) that encourages digestive tract muscles to gently contract. This ensures the fast and efficient emptying of stomach contents.
