Anything that digests easily or helps in digestion

Hi

In my language, we have words for things that digest (or don't digest) easily. Also, for things that help in digestion. Could you please provide me with suitable words here?

It's a known fact that papaya is __________________________. (digests easily)

It's a known fact that is stuffed meat (BBQ, etc) is __________________________. (does not digest easily)

Many people falsely believe that fizzy drinks are _____________________________. (help in digestion)

Thanks,

Tom

Usually one would say "helps digestion" or "aids digestion" or something like that.
