Nutritional composition of coconut water

An article on the Tam Anh General Hospital website with expert advice from Dr. Tran Thi Tra Phuong said that coconut water not only quenches thirst but also possesses a diverse source of nutrients that are beneficial to health:

Carbohydrates: In coconut water, carbohydrates exist in the form of natural sugars, providing a source of energy to help build the body. Therefore, drinking coconut water after high-intensity exercise is a way to replenish energy in time to help the body recover.

Electrolytes: Coconut water is a rich source of electrolytes such as sodium (105 mg/100 g), potassium (250 mg/100 g), magnesium (25 mg/100 g). Therefore, drinking coconut water will help balance electrolytes in the body effectively.

Vitamin C and calcium: On average, 100g of coconut water provides about 2.4 mg of vitamin C and 24 mg of calcium, helping to neutralize free radicals, improve immune system health, thereby helping to strengthen the body's protective barrier.

In addition, coconut water is also a food that does not contain cholesterol and fat. If consumed properly, it is safe and does not harm the health of the cardiovascular system.
