10 Benefits of Coconut Water
Coconut Water Benefit #5: Essential Minerals
Generally speaking, we have food for nutrition and drinks for refreshment and rehydration. This means we tend not to look out for nutritional value in drinks, other than to avoid those with high sugar contents and other ingredients of which to keep clear.
Coconut water contains magnesium, calcium, potassium, sodium and phosphorous. These are all essential minerals that we will struggle without. What is particularly special about coconut water is that it contains all of these, which is unusual. Other foods and drinks tend to have some, but rarely do they have all of them.
