What are the benefits of potassium?

Potassium is a mineral and an electrolyte that is important for your nervous system and muscle contraction. Potassium can also help maintain healthy blood pressure, which contributes to heart health, and may help blunt the effects of sodium on blood pressure. Current Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend that adults consume at least 4,700mg of potassium and no more than 2,300mg of sodium daily. Many of our V8 100% Vegetable Juices provide a good or excellent source of potassium, to help you meet the daily requirement of this important nutrient.

Who invented V8® 100% Vegetable Juice and when?

W.G. Peacock and his son invented V8 Vegetable Juice in 1933 in Evanston, IL. They entered the vegetable juice business as a health craze emerged. They initially tried individual vegetable juices, like dark leafy greens and beets, but found those to be extremely unpalatable. So they experimented with blending multiple vegetables together, some chosen for their high nutritional content and others for their natural sweetness, like carrots and tomatoes, to balance the flavor.
