When it's pulverized your body can easily get what it needs and get rid of the rest. Digestion is faster, easier and you get every bit of vitamins out of that food that you possibly can. It makes complete sense to me. And that's saying something lol.
Haven't you ever thrown up and seen chunks of food in there? It's harder for your body to get through digesting that because it has to break it all down taking longer, making you more sluggish and tired.

Yes, you might miss some nutrients sometimes, but does it really make a difference? Eat a tad more and that is it.
Also, you body is supposed to have shit. Believe me, I am currently taking "medicine" that adds bulk (into shit). It is like sourdough; there must be enough left that the system works.
It also doesn't hurt to eat more slowly and to chew a tad more.
