Why I Love Coconut Water

I had heard the benefits of coconut water in passing but never paid much attention. I decided to start making changes to improve my health and fitness levels so I started doing some research. One of the things I found was how amazing coconut water is. For some the taste might be a small adjustment, but absolutely worthwhile! (Besides, there are so many variations on flavors now that there must be one that you will surely love!)

Some benefits of coconut water:
  • Low in calories
  • Low in carbs
  • Low in sugar
  • Fat free
  • High in potassium
  • Low in sodium
  • Lowers high blood pressure
  • Hydrating
  • Carries nutrients and oxygen to blood cells
  • Raise you metabolism
  • Boosts immune system
  • Promotes weight loss
  • Detoxifies
  • Fights viruses
  • Promotes circulation
Why I love coconut water:

The fact that coconut water is high in potassium (prevents cramping), low in sodium, and extremely hydrating is why I feel it's one of the best options for anyone who is active or involved in a fitness program.
