I come from a Seventh Day Adventist background, a group who has been studied and found to live 7-8 years longer than the average person. "I don’t have to waste time chewing all of it." When considering an all liquid diet, remember that letting saliva mix with the food is an important part of starting the digestion process. Even though the food is already in small pieces, by drinking all of your food as quickly as you can, you might be shooting your digestion in the foot. For your blender, check out the VitaMixer. A regular blender might work just as well, but I have a hunch that the VitaMixer keeps the nutrients in a better state for digestion. I believe Steve Pavlina talks about it somewhere. Happy healthy eating! I just wanted to put in my few cents here.
