Coconut


The young coconut experience!




Wow, ever cut a young coconut! I think my knife could have been sharper or something, because it was really hard to open! Very cool looking, and very good for you as well! I haven't decided what to do with it yet, have any ideas?




Coconut Water for Hydration

*Potassium. Very high source of potassium-more per serving than bananas or sports drinks like Gatorade.

*Healthy Lifestyle. Low in calories, light and refreshing. Only 60 calories per serving.

*Isotonic Beverage. Studies have shown that it is an isotonic beverage. Coconut Water has the same electrolytic balance as human blood: It's Isotonic!

*Manganese. Coconut Water has a very high level of Manganese which is essential for bone growth and the body's development; 2-5mg a day is required for good health. Manganese supplements are used to treat Osteoporosis.

*Tastes delicious.
Drink ice cold for best taste results.

*Human Connection.
CW shares the same electrolytic balance as human blood, and during World War II when IV solutions were scarce, CW was used as an IV drip for patients in hospitals and clinics.

*Trendy!
Coconut water has made its way to all the trendiest celebrity parties, events and sports events. If you're not drinking coconut water, you're just not sipping-it with the 'in crowd'.

*Mainstream Availability.
You can easily find brands like ONE, ZICO and Vita CoCo at mainstream supermarkets like Whole Foods. If you want the very freshest of coconut water beverages-simply buy one of those large white fresh young coconuts, crack it open, insert straw and sip your way to coconut water hydration.
