For those of us who are nutritionally conscious, I want to point out a fabulous and easy way to meet Potassium goals. My doctor spotted a can of V8 in my bag, and made me promise, "Brenda, you WILL start buying Low Sodium!" At first I balked, "But, I like the way the regular stuff tastes... " Until I read the side by side labels, I was a convert!

After the first 3 or 4 Low Sodium V8's I was happy with the flavor. Potassium is so important for your body, especially if you workout hard. I drink a can on my way to the Aquatic Center, then swim to my hearts content!

Do yourself a cheap favor, try Low Sodium V8.
OH! and it has PROTEIN, too! One 11.5 ounce can is 1/3 your daily potassium!

    I have bp issues and was told potassium will help with it. Low sodium v-8 has been a big help with getting more potassium.

    I love this stuff. I drink it every day, sometimes twice a day. I like to swim, too! I track potassium instead of carbs....as I'm never over on those. It's interesting to see what has potassium in it and how much you need each day. It's quite a bit.
