Why you should be drinking coconut water...

Coconuts seem to be one of the most beneficial fruits.  I mean it has what seems to be an endless amount of uses.  Today's focus will be the water of young coconuts.  Usually when you buy coconut water from the supermarket it is the water of young coconuts.  Young coconuts can be identified by their green exterior not to be confused with their aged counter parts with the brown shell which is usually what we think about when we think about coconuts.  Young coconuts contain the most liquid. You can either buy a batch of young coconuts and cut them open your self or buy coconut water from the supermarket.  When buying boxed or canned coconut water there are a few things to look for.  You want to make sure you read the ingredients and be certain that you are buying %100 coconut water.  Some brands add sugar and flavors you don't want any of that. Now coconut water can be a bit  on the expensive side ranging anywhere from $4-$6 per liter.  So if you find it on sale stock up it has a pretty good shelf life unopened.  Drinking coconut water has sooooo many benefits so I will list my favorites.  It is a diuretic which means it helps to cleanse your kidneys and urinary tract.  It is also great for your skin when applied directly or injected Lifehaque.org wrote ...."Picture-Perfect Skin.

For those with acne or other blemishes on the surface of the skin, topical application of coconut water can go a great distance as it has the ability to clear up and subsequently tone the skin. It also moisturizes the skin from within if ingested orally and eliminates large amounts of oil. This explains why products such as facial creams, shampoos, conditioners and lotions that contain traces of coconut extract are more effective."  Also my secret use for coconut water is it promotes vaginal wetness.  Drinking a good amount of coconut water in your diet is great for your vagina.  Have you ever heard that pineapple juice does a certain "something" for men and their secretions? Lol Well ladies let's just say coconut water does the same thing for us! Wink, wink ;) .....Live, Learn, Love!
