GOOD EATS: Cuckoo for COCONUTS

I love fresh young coconuts! (That sounds funny! Ha. Lol) They add a lil fun to a fast when my friends are drinking wine.

Nutritionally: coconut water is loaded with B-complex vitamins such as riboflavin, niacin, thiamin, pyridoxine and folates. It is packed with amino acids, enzymes, dietary fiber, vitamin C and minerals such as potassium, magnesium and manganese. It is also has anti viral and anti bacterial properties.

The cytokinins in coconut water has anti aging-effects and is great for skin in general.

Coconut water is also a natural diuretic. Urologists recommend kidney stone sufferers drink coconut water every other day to reduce the size of stones.

Basically it's a mega superfood! Enjoy!
