THE COCONUT

First thing is the coconut is not a nut it's a seed. The largest seed known.......But who knew it was such a healing food?
The raw foodists in my neck of the woods believe in coconut water more than life itself when i read up on it i now know why. When they are doing their fasts they drink nothing but coconut water for 3 days .
It's more nutritious than whole milk....less fat and no cholesterol
It's healthier than orange juice.....much lower in calories
It's better than processed baby milk
It contains lauric acid which is present in human mother`s milk
It's a natural isotonic beverage with the same electrolytic balance as we have in our blood .
Do not confuse coconut water with coconut milk, two different things.
Coconut water contains more potassium than sports and energy drinks .
Coconut water has less sodium ( 25 mg ) whereas sports drinks have around 41 mg and energy drinks 200mg!
Please go and read the labels of these things.........we throw too much in our stomachs without reading first.
Coconut water also has 5 mg of NATURAL sugars whereas the supposed to be healthy sports and energy drinks have 10-25mg of ALTERED sugars!
Has anyone every seen altered sugars ?
"Coconut water is the very stuff of nature - biologically pure , full of natural sugars , salts, and vitamins to ward off fatigue...and is the next wave of energy drink BUT natural !" - Morin Satin, Chief of the United Nation's, Food and Agriculture Organization.
