Coconut Water " Good fi yuh Heart"

Good Morning REVEllers! Christmas has past and the new year is upon us! Here in Jamaica we have an old saying which goes " Coconut water wash off yuh heart " . This obviously is not a literal saying because you need all those fluids to keep your heart going . This simply means that drinking coconut water has many health benefits ; which you will find below.


  • The oral intake of coconut water helps in breaking down and eliminating all forms of kidney and bladder stones, one health benefit that is low cost effective, and can save thousand of dollars that would have been put out for medical bills.
  • It is known by many experts that coconut water contains the following supplements needed to sustain life:

- Glucose: which acts as sugar for energy in the body when taken
- Vitamin Bs: for replenishment of worn out cells and tissues
- Vitamin C: to shield the body form ailments like scurvy
- Potassium: which helps in lowering arterial blood pressure
  • Coconut water has been generally offered to patients with diarrhea in many tropic regions to replace the fluid loss from the gastrointestinal tract and reduce the need for intravenous therapy
  • Researchers have found that Cytokinins help regulate the cell growth and their divisions. Coconut Water contains these cytokinins and lauric acid which can minimize the aging of skin cells, balance PH levels, and keep the connective tissues strong and hydrated. Therefore, simply applying Coconut Water onto affected skin areas every night before going to bed may help with acne, age spots, wrinkles, stretch marks, cellulite, and eczema. 
  • Coconut water is a natural electrolyte and isotonic beverage which help increase the body's metabolism. Therefore, it can greatly benefit people who are struggling with weight issues.
