I don't really have an answer to your question, except that I've never been told I couldn't have juice. I was told not a lot of juice, and I was also told that fresh fruit is better for you than juice, but I was told I can have juice as long as it is 100% juice with no added sugars. The problem with juices is that they can say 100% juice and still have added sugars, so you have to read labels closely. One thing I was told is that if I feel I still need some juice, I can actually water it down a little bit (like you would for a baby) to lower calorie count and sugars and such that I'm getting, but to still make sure no added sugars. I would think a small amount of V8 Fusion should be fine (I know I consume this, and it's been on my food logs that I've brought to my endo who is handling my dieting as well and she hasn't said it's a no-no.). But if you DH does have to cut it out entirely but still wants a sweet juice taste, maybe you can try Crystal light packets or an off name brand of them. They're great for the flavor of juice with no sugars, no high fructose corn syrup, and only very few calories if any (I think they are 5 calories per serving).
