Coconut, Water

Coconut water is the liquid inside young, immature coconuts. As the coconut matures this liquid largely becomes absorbed into the flesh.

Coconut water has long been a popular drink in the tropics,and is marketed today as a sports drink due to its high potassium and mineral content.

Coconut water helps to alkalize the body and is naturally fat-free and low in calories.
