I've got nothing against blending foods in a high speed blender, and I plan on buying myself one in the near future. However, I've heard, and it makes some sense I suppose, that when you blend a food it create's free radicals, the EMF from the blender damage's the food, all the whirling kills the enzymes and other beneficial nutrients, and that the blender pull's in lots or air that oxidizes the food being blended very rapidely.
I would love to hear your opinion from what I just stated above
The advantage of a high speed powerful blender is - the food is blended in a very short amount of time so oxidation is kept to a minimum. Personally, I use an anti-air pump to vacumm pack my smoothies within a minute of when they come out of the blender - cutting any oxidation immediately. Enzymes are killed by temperatures over 118 degrees so quick blending is crucial. In a normal blender, to get a smooth smoothie you have to blend a much longer time and the tempreature can easily heat up.
