Nutritional & Health Considerations

• Key Nutrients (per 100 mL, approximate):
  • Calories: ~30–40 kcal (varies slightly by batch).
  • Carbohydrates: ~6–8g (natural sugars from coconut).
  • Electrolytes: Contains potassium, magnesium, and sodium (similar to sports drinks but without artificial additives).
  • No added sugars, preservatives, or artificial flavors (if labeled as "natural").
• Health Benefits:
  • Hydration-friendly (low in calories, high in electrolytes).
  • Rich in antioxidants (e.g., polyphenols from coconut).
  • Suitable for athletes or those recovering from dehydration (though not a sports drink replacement for intense workouts).
• Potential Concerns:
  • Natural vs. Processed: Some coconut water brands add sugars or flavors; verify the label for "100% natural" or "no added sugars."
  • Allergies: Rare, but coconut is a tree nut; cross-contamination risks may exist in processing facilities.
  • Sodium Content: Higher than plain water (~200–300 mg per 100 mL), which may not be ideal for those on low-sodium diets.
  • Acidity: Coconut water has a pH of ~5.5–6.5, which may erode tooth enamel if consumed excessively without rinsing.
