Coconut water is the best drink for summer. If you want a quick sip that does not add on too much your caloric level yet gives you the much needed respite from heat then coconut water is the best bet. Shun the ice cream and drink this clear fluid instead. Check out the health benefits of it:
-Coconut water is packed with electrolytes, minerals, and simple sugar.
-Coconut water is a very refreshing drink to beat tropical summer thirst. The juice is packed with simple sugar, electrolytes, and minerals to replenish hydration levels within the body.
-Research studies suggest that cytokinins, a plant harmone, in coconut water slow down aging and have anti-thrombotic effects.
-If diarrhea strikes you then coconut water is much better than plain water to replenish the hydration levels. It, actually, replaces fluid loss from the gastrointestinal tract so no intravenous treatment is needed.
However, coconut water can’t completely replace WHO recommended ORS (Oral Rehydration Salts) powder. Coconut water has a higher osmolarity compared to ORS as it has like amino acids, enzymes, minerals, and fatty acids. But ORS is higher on sodium and chlorides.
-The B-complex vitamins such as riboflavin, niacin, thiamin, pyridoxine, and folates in the drink improve immunity.
-The drink is ideal for pregnant women as it prevents and eases constipation.
