I’ve always been coconuts for the taste of coconuts – coconut cake, Almond Joy and Mounds Candy Bars, coconut ice cream, coconut shrimp, coconut right out of the bag…. any way I can get my hands on coconuts is a welcome sight to me.
I’ve become a HUGE fan of coconut water, too. A few benefits I’ve noticed with coconut water:
- Caffeine Free – so it’s perfect for drinking late at night.
- Helps with Digestion – if you have digestive issues (or simply wouldn’t mind a little help in the area), coconut water could be just what you need.
- It’s a great way to get off of soft drinks. It’s a healthy switch and so much tastier.
Below is a great infographic telling about the uses for coconuts and how people around the world use this wonderful super food.
As more and more Americans appreciate the fantastic flavor and health benefits of coconut oil, many more excellent brands show up on store shelves. My favorite happens to be Sun Beams Brands, because it’s made from certified organic coconuts, which have not been treated with chemicals or fertilizers. Plus, it comes in a generously proportioned container, so I always have enough to share with my beloved five-pack of dogs! (Find on Amazon)
@ Khloe Mharie. The Sun Beams Brands is totally excellent. I have also tried it for my dog.
