Don't you lose all the fiber grinding it up like that? Like when you make a smoothie instead of eating fresh whole pieces of fruit?

How is grinding by a blender any different than grinding by teeth?

What,? First time I hear the idea that a whole apple smoothie would lose the fiber of an apple.

Where do we suppose the fiber goes to?

It's more that it's so broken up that is moves through the digestive system quicker and has a different effect as it is effectively pulverized.

Not an expert.
