Sugar is sugar
Okay, not for me. "carrot juice from concentrate, fruit juices from concentrate, apple juice concentrate, kiwi juice concentrate, strawberry juice concentrate". Now I'm only speaking for MYSELF - but I know these are all very concentrated forms of sugar. Carrots are extremely high glycemic - I'm off fruit completely no matter where it is. Those 3 carbs are pure sugar carbs and as long as I am still chosing the KIND of carbs I put in, I still choose NO sugar. My carbs will only be from lc veggies/I can't afford to use that carb space for anything but serious vitamins & minerals. Unlike real v8 this drink cannot have the nutrition that real v8 has...it's all fruit juice - and concentrated at that.
Bummer (for me).
Everyone else enjoy...and remember - stick to ONE serving...what is that? 8oz? Be careful...your typical kitchen glass is twice that size.
Peace everyone. N
