V8 juice and a vegan diet?

Question

so i'm vegan, and i eat veggies as much as possible, but i fear i'm not getting enough. I might be, i do eat like half a bushal <sp?> of asparagus with my dinner, or i throw in a big thing of brocoli. Anyway, i'm wondering how much V8 juice is should be drinking if that is about all the veggies i'm getting in a day. One head of brocoli or half a bushal of asparagus, i eat other veggies, that is just how many "servings i have".

Extra info:

I drink 1 can of V8 a day right now, but i'm thinking about stepping it up to 2 cans, i just want opinions on if 2 cans would be too much, maybe i need 3 a day?

Answer 1

Make your own!  Don&#039;t buy processed foods.

Answer 2

I like V8 and I&#039;m not a vegan. If you go from 1 can a day to 2, it isn&#039;t likely to do you any harm.

But no matter how much asparagus and broccoli you eat, you need other foods to get a complete diet.

Answer 3

you can buy a juice machine and make your own :]

btw: you can have as many veggies as you want. there&#039;s no such thing as too much veggies :]

Answer 4

Try buying a vegetable juicer and make your own.  V8 is highly processed and it is high in sodium.  It probably doesn&#039;t have much nutritional value.  You should also consider getting a few books from the library on vegan nutrition.  Juicing books are another good resource.  It doesn&#039;t sound like you are eating very healthy.
