V8 THE POWER OF VEGETABLES

Eating a wide range of colorful vegetables and fruit provides essential vitamins, minerals, fiber and phytonutrients (plant-nutrients) that your body needs to promote good health. V8® 100% Vegetable Juice makes it so easy to get these key vitamins and nutrients in one delicious drink. Every 12-ounce bottle of V8 100% Vegetable Juice contains 3 out of 5 of your daily vegetable requirements.*

Growing up you may have been told to eat your greens, but what about your reds, oranges, yellows, whites and blues?

The more different colored fruits and vegetables you eat, the more health-promoting properties you are getting.

V8 100% Vegetable Juice provides vegetable juices
from the following major color groups:

RED Group—tomatoes and beets: Provides powerful, natural antioxidants. The antioxidant Lycopene is found naturally in tomatoes, and helps protect against cell damage.

ORANGE Group—carrots: Delivers vitamin A (alpha- and beta-carotene) to help maintain vision and a healthy immune system.

GREEN Group—V8 juice provides a sampling from this group of spinach, celery, lettuce, parsley and watercress: When consumed in sufficient quantities, it helps to round out your diet with other vitamins, minerals and natural antioxidants.

TOMATOES
Tomatoes receive high marks for nutrition and taste. They're a good source of vitamins C and A, low in calories, as well as naturally fat-free and cholesterol-free. Campbell's uses hundreds of thousands of pounds of tomatoes each year to make V8 100% Vegetable Juices.

BEETS
The phrase "red as a beet" is somewhat misleading. Beets actually contain two groups of pigments: purplish red and yellow. Beets can add a splash of color to your meals, and a 1/2-cup serving of cooked beets has only about 40 calories. Their sweet taste comes from sugar, which is naturally present. Beet puree makes a great-tasting thickener for soup.

CELERY
Celery gives you the crunch—without the excess calories. One large stalk of celery contains only about 10 calories. Two stalks of celery provide 10 percent of the Daily Value of potassium.

CARROTS
A certain cartoon rabbit loves 'em and for good reason. Carrots contain alpha- and beta-carotene, which the body converts to vitamin A. One medium raw carrot provides more than the Recommended Daily Value of vitamin A and about the same amount of fiber as a slice of whole wheat bread.

LETTUCE
Salads can become culinary masterpieces, but the basic ingredient of most salads remains the same—lettuce. The type of lettuce most often used in V8 100% Vegetable Juice is iceberg. One cup of iceberg lettuce has only 10 calories!

PARSLEY
Parsley is most often thought of as merely a garnish, but it's a vegetable with more nutrients than you may imagine, like vitamins A and C, folate and potassium. A half cup of raw parsley has only 11 calories and as much vitamin C as half of a navel orange. One cup of raw parsley has more potassium than half a banana. Parsley is also a natural breath freshener!

WATERCRESS
Ancient Greeks thought of watercress as a medicinal herb. Today, watercress is used mainly in salads and sandwiches. A member of the mustard family, watercress is a source of vitamin A, providing 15 percent of the Recommended Daily Value for adults in a half-cup serving.

SPINACH
The "sailor man" was right—spinach is a nutrition sensation. One half cup of spinach provides iron, potassium, fiber, folic acid, magnesium and vitamins A and C. Plus, it's low in calories. One cup of raw spinach has fewer than 15 calories. Spinach should be lightly steamed or microwaved, as over-cooking can destroy vitamin C and folate.
