It turns out that V8 is particularly high in sodium because they use salt as a flavor enhancer and a preservative. Adding more sodium to your diet than your body is used to can cause water retention, so I assume this is the reason why I had felt super bloated and gained a bit of weight.

I practice a strict green juice fast every quarter or so, and I’ve been known to make a pretty delicious mimosa with fresh pressed orange juice for weekend brunch. That said, when I was asked to incorporate V8 juice into my diet for a week, I was hesitant. I love a fresh pressed veggie juice (I even have my own Breville juicer that I keep on my counter), so the idea of swapping out my fresh juices for a bottled juice I associate with Bloody Mary cocktails seemed grim—at least until I did a bit of research about V8 juice. According to a Healthline report, V8 juice is actually surprisingly nutritious. It’s made from a large assortment of vegetables, including tomatoes, carrots, beets, celery, lettuce, parsley, spinach, and watercress. It also packs two servings of vegetables per glass with a huge dose of vitamins A and C, as well as potassium. I was intrigued by the seemingly impressive health benefits-to-effort ratio (all my regular juices are homemade and it’s a lot of work!) so I decided to give it a go. Here’s exactly what happened to my body after a week of drinking V8 juice.
