V8 - V8 Splash - V8 Fusion - or none of the above?!
My family basically drinks milk and water only!.!.!. we never have soda or juice in the house!.
We have a 2!.5 year old son who we're encouraging to eat healthy (haha - like that is working) and we thought maybe introducing some sort of veggie/fruit juice might be a good option!. It isn't a substitute for healthy eating, rather a supplement!.
I can't figure out which of these items would be best!.!.!. I'm obviously leaning towards one of the 2 newer items that contains fruit also!.!.!.
Some are higher in vitamins, but higher in sodium too!.!.!. another one has higher sugar, but better fiber content!.!.!. is one better than the other, or not really!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Our 3-and-a-half y/o son does not like V8, but he loves V8 Splash and V8 Fusion!. I think V8 Fusion is a better choice since they advertise a full serving of fruits & veggies!. I do not know about your son's diet, but getting ours to eat veggies is a struggle!. We have replaced our son's regular fruit juice with V8 Fusion and he loves it (except the Blueberry/Pomegranate)!.
When our son is slightly constipated we give him apple juice with added fiber (a cheap variety made by Sam's Choice) instead of any type of V8!. He only gets up to two glasses of juice per day regardless, because it is high in sugar!. The rest of the day he gets sugar-free kool aid or water!.
The V8 Smoothies do not seem as healthy as the other varieties, but are still delicious and as good a choice as normal fruit juice (vitamins + antioxidants)!. But for a normal staple of your household groceries, you can not do much better than V8 Fusion!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

you can get low sodium V-8 which is what I get and I drink it all the time!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
v-8 has a lot of sodium while the others have lots of added sugars!. i would just stick with plain 100% juices - apple, orange, grape, etc!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
V-8 is great but it has a lot of salt!.!.!.tht is something you want to look out for with your son!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
