Liquid forms of food

[killercougar212]

If I am drinking liquid sources throughout the day for example soups and shakes. Blended up ingredients. Will this give me more enegery so my body doesnt have to digest food during the dasy ????

No. Just how much energy do you think digesting food takes?

 

[Fella Finn]

If the calorie breakdown (macros, fibre etc) in those two (liquid vs solid) is equal you should get the same amount of energy. At most a very minimal difference I'd say.

 

[stevesmi]

soup and shakes most certainly need to be digested so that idea won't work

if you want more energy switch to intermittent fasting 4X per week and on off days eat a light breakfast.. maybe an egg or two and some fruit

Keep in mind that the act of chewing helps to satiate hunger. Drinking your meals has zero benefit. I only drink food if I'm having a shake with my solid meal for extra protein or if I'm literally in such a rush that I need to drink it while I drive
