We are all trying to do the best we can do for our health and are constantly bombarded with new possibilities.

A couple of weeks ago I went to a Thai restaurant in San Francisco with some of my class mates and my friend Kathy ordered a “young coconut” as her drink choice. I had never paid attention if they had the young coconut on any menu before, but was pleasantly surprise how good and not too

sweet the coconut water tasted.

The next day I went to our local Asian market in Dublin (Ranch 99) to explore with my own young coconut. The price was right – $1.99 – but how would I open it? Well, thanks to you-tube I was able to watch a how-to video and successfully prepared my coconut.

As for all the benefits of this great “nut”, I guess you can either read a lot about it, or like me – just enjoy and have fun with this  unique natural beverage!

Here is the how-to-link  (video) for opening the coconut and all the health benefits: (Pro-coconut water)

And here is the more critical link, that it might not be all what is promised:
