Would a serious bodybuilder put v8 in his body? Would this count as a serving of vegetables? The low sodium version is available. Just seems like a convienent way to get those needed veggies, I hate cooking.

Depends of the person I imagine. 'Serious bodybuilders' do many things - and for the majority of them, I think a lot of it would simply come down to whether or not they wanted some vegetable juice.
In terms of your health (and using it instead of vegetables) - juice is about 5% as useful to you as the real things. Sure, it offers you some of the vitamins and minerals, but it lacks everything else.
Processing will remove a large number of the nutrients available (many are fragile and will not survive heating/over cooking and juicing). Processing will also remove the fibre, meaning it will not help with satiety, cholesterol or intestinal health.. This also means that there are a lot more calories in a typical serve vegetable juice when compared to your typical serve of vegetables - so, although it seems rediculous, you can overdo the calories! Lastly, processing will also distroys most of the anti-oxidants and phyto-nutrients (which are all those things that are essential for the health effects such as the anti-cancer, cholesterol lowering, blood pressure lowering, anti-disease and anti-aging properties).
If you want to drink it - then do, but make sure you are aware of quantity and quality (look for added sugar or other nasty things)... and don't use it as a vegetable substitute. You still need to eat the proper things.
It's better than Sodee-pop -

LOL oops..
Science nerd joke...njc said:
It is the short-hand way of writing that something is deficient in both genes that encode for leptin - known as the 'obesity gene'. They usually use it for talking about specifically breed colonies of mice where the leptin gene on both copies of their DNA have been removed so that they use to mice as models of obesity.
I have it under my name because leptin deficiency usually results in hyperphargia (you eat a lot....).
