I remember on my beautiful Island Grenada the one thing that really worked to hydrate the body was and still is Coconut Water. Refreshing and delicious.
For anyone who does not know, Coconut Water is the clear liquid inside the coconut. It is Potassium Rich and SUPER Hydrating.
A wonderful source of electrolytes coconut water is low in natural fats and calories and is cholesterol free and has more potassium than four bananas or any sport drinks. Coconut water has a nutty, sweet taste and low in sodium. A study recently published in Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise shows that coconut water replenishes body fluids as well as a sports drink and better than water. It is so valuable in regards to minerals, vitamins, electrolytes and alkalizing your system.
Urologists around the world recommend that kidney stone sufferers should drink coconut water every alternate day to gradually reduce their stone size for easy elimination.
Loaded with vital nutrients, coconut water is a very good source of B-complex vitamins such as riboflavin, niacin, thiamine, pyridoxine, and folates. Also rich in amino acids, dietary fiber, vitamin C, enzymes and minerals such as potassium, magnesium and manganese .It is also very beneficial as it has anti bacterial and anti viral properties.
Coconut water works wonders for your skin too.
Researches show that coconut water have cytokinins which are beneficial for anti aging-effects.It can be used as a light moisturizer if you have oily skin. In addition to the benefits to the skin it also helps in repairing and growth of nails and smooth hair.
So today keep hydrated and cool with some wonderful coconut water I did and it was delish. The benefits are an extra bonus to me.
If you have the opportunity to drink the water directly from the coconut enjoy, but to those like myself who have to purchase in a store always read the labels, look for added ingredients.
The best and closest bottled coconut water i have found is Arizona Coco Zona 100% Coconut Water, original. Ingredients coconut water from concentrate. Zero fat, zero cholesterol, zero added sugar, essential electrolytes, potassium. www.drinkarizona.com.
