Sounds like it might be an option if your powered soldiers are used like the HEAT in Deathworlders - sent in for a relatively short-term mission but with a decent amount of prep beforehand, with longer periods of time between missions. Upcoming mission? Switch to a liquid diet a few days before, do the mission, then switch back to solids once you've returned. This assumes a liquid diet doesn't cause any issues that would negatively impact performance (which could include morale effects, although the morale hit of "No steak" may be offset by the morale gain of "No fecal waste disposal tube"). But this is probably a digression.
