New studies Researchers at the University of California-Davis have suggested that drinking V8 100% vegetable juice may be a simple way for people to increase their vegetable intake and may help them manage their weight.

• Drinking vegetables juices can be an effective tool in achieving behavior change.
• Eating more vegetables can be a helpful strategy to manage weight because they are ‘low-energy-dense’, meaning they have more nutrition for fewer calories.
• Overweight individuals with metabolic syndrome who drank one to two servings of V8 100 percent vegetable juice as part of DASH diet lost more weight compared to non-juice drinkers.
• Over the 12-week study period, the juice drinkers lost an average of four pounds compared to the non-juice drinkers who lost one pound.
• Vegetable juice drinkers had significant increase of vegetable intake, vitamin C and potassium over the course of the study compared to the non-juice drinkers.
