Coconut Water

[Sandwiches]

Been drinking Coconut Water at the start and during my workouts for awhile now and i feel that i am seeing the benefits of it. i love the stuff actually! it helps the body maintain a proper level temperature and natural fluid levels. it also helps carry nutrients and oxygen to different cells and parts of the body. it is a natural antioxidant, helps increase the metabolic rate. fats in coconut water are not stored in the body, they are sent directly to the liver and converted into energy, it helps repair muscle tissues'. stimulates growth in the body. helps your skin. It helps the body absorb other nutrients like vitamins, amino acids and minerals. it also helps the absorption of drugs and makes their peak concentration in the blood easier, thus making them more effective. the list goes on.
anyones else drink this stuff during their workouts? or at anytime of the day?

Really? They inject this stuff IV? I'd be worried about sterility issues if someone ever told me they were going to give IV coconut water :O

[Memo]

they must be drinking it

I hope so, but by his post it seemed like they were using it to replace an IV solution. I hope he meant they are using it orally to rehydrate a patient when lacking IV solutions, otherwise that's a little screwed up...

So basically it's a natural version of spring water that comes with it's own container and a little sugar. Sounds tasty but not entirely magical.

Where coconuts grow it's a chance to drink something that is likely not going to give you the runs. I will definitely keep it in mind the next time I'm anywhere where coconuts grow. Till then a glass of water will do me fine.
