Hi Angela, My nutritionist told me that V8 counts as a full liquid, so if you're on clear liquids it's a . I asked too because I love V8. She said that after surgery I could have it -- in fact it's great -- full of nutritious stuff, jus****ch the sodium. I never heard anything about V8 having too much sugar. On the other hand you ARE allowed diet V8 splash -- the fruity kind -- as a clear liquid. It's flavored w/ Splenda so no sugar problem there. Hope this helps. Best wishes as you stroll along your journey to your new life! Ann

hi ann, you can purchase low sodium v8 juice. it has half the sodium and is good. it is a good way to get phenols , anitoxidants and vitamins . there are lots of veggies in v8. also i used to live in newark , delaware. good luck, sally

Angela, I'm almost 18 months out, and have had a small V-8 every morning since I started full liquids! Sharon 290/166/160

Angela, I love V8 and also love Bloody Mary Mix. In fact, when I travel, I always opt for one since I can't indulge in the sodas. Tastes so good. Enjoy when you get to the full liquid stage. Karen

that?s the splash stuff, which I agree is garbage. the regular low-sodium v8 splash juice is really high in potassium and vitamins A and C? and is low sugar as well.
