I would say that it should be ok but the sodium content may be too high. That and I really don't like V8 that much myself, rather go with raw/whole veggies than a blended drink with sodium and other preservatives.

Tesla drinks a ton of V8 and has not liked the low sodium one. It's so high in sodium the actual veggies are a much better choice but once in a while it's not going to hurt.

V8 works well in a pinch, but it doesn't really do much for the 'fullness feeling' IMO. Raw or steamed veggies for me

Yep, V8 is a sodium nightmare, IMO.....Although I bet Built adds salt to it.

If this is something that you really feel the need to do, I'd make my own. You don't necessarily need a "juicer"..most of these are over-priced junk anyway. Just get a food processor with a juicer feature, or use a heavy duty blender, puree the heck out of your ingredients and strain 'em.
