Although coconut is generally thought of as a more common food in the Caribbean area, it is currently becoming a food consumed throughout the world, due to the great properties of coconut water for health.
Coconut water is the liquid drink found inside the green coconut and is known to have several health benefits, including:
Coconut water is an excellent source of hydration due to its high content of natural electrolytes, such as potassium, sodium and magnesium, which help replace fluids and minerals lost during exercise or physical activity.
In addition, coconut water can also be used in health problems where there is a risk of dehydration, such as diarrhea.
Because it has a pleasant and slightly sweetened flavor, you can drink coconut water when you are thirsty, helping to hydrate the body, skin, and hair.
According to the portal salud180.com, “Coconut water contains fiber and nutrients that help improve digestion, relieve heartburn, and reduce inflammation in the digestive tract.”
