Coconut
water is a refreshing beverage that comes from coconuts. It’s
a powerhouse of nutrition containing a complex blend of vitamins,
minerals, amino acids, carbohydrates, antioxidants, enzymes, health
enhancing growth hormones, and other phytonutrients.
Because its electrolyte (ionic
mineral) content is similar to human plasma, it has gained international
acclaim as a natural sports drink for oral rehydration. As such, it has
proven superior to commercial sports drinks. Unlike other beverages, it
is completely compatible with the human body, in so much that it can be
infused directly into the bloodstream. In fact, doctors have used
coconut water successfully as an intravenous fluid for over 60 years.
Coconut water’s unique nutritional
profile gives it the power to balance body chemistry, ward off disease,
fight cancer, and retard aging. History and folklore credit coconut
water with remarkable healing powers, which medical science is now
confirming. Published medical research and clinical observation have
shown that coconut water:
