Is V-8 really that good for you?

[ROAD DOG]

I find it hard to eat vegetables throughout the day,even though I should because they are good for you.I was wondering if it would be a good idea to drink V-8 instead,since it is much easier.Is there anything unhealthy about it that I am not aware of,I was thinking about drinking the low sodium version.

What's the sugar content of V8 drinks? That would be the only issue I'd see with it if that's a high amount.

V8 Splash is some good stuff as far as taste goes. Can't remember the sugar content but it had to be fairly low if I bought it. Doubt that Splash has the same vegetable content that regular V8 has . . . . .

v8 is crap--it is a poor excuse for real vegetables and v8 splash is very high in sugar as are many fruit juices. V8 is also fairly high in sodium--if it has more than 5 ingredients it probably does not come from nature.
