The one thing that had always put me off smoothies is the concentration of whatever is in them, even if you make them yourself!

I've just been reading Metabolical by Dr Robert Lustig. He's anti any smoothies, no matter how good the ingredients. Says it destroys the fibre too much and our guts need the fibre. Although its all in the glass it's too processed to do its job properly.
Ditto juice and baby food

Think you will find it hard to get many takers, as this type of combination hits the blood stream rather quickly. In my pre-diabetes days it would have been a bananas and many berries, with coconut milk.
