Benefits of Coconut Milk
In Hawaii, my friends and I would get coconuts and drink the milk. Then we would paint the coconuts like an island canvas. Now I enjoy doing it with my little girls. To increase the nutritional value of the foods and protein shakes I make, I love using Reduced Fat Coconut Milk. It makes it so creamy and boosts the nutritional value. I also use it in place of water when I make rice here are more ideas...
Coco: means " Monkey Face!"
Coconut water vs. coconut milk:
The difference between the two is that coconut water is taken from the coconut before it's ripened. Coconut milk is taken from the coconut after the coconut is ripe and it is pressed from the meat of the coconut giving it a milky white consistency.
I love adding coconut milk to my protein drinks as it provides a quick source of energy. For avid trainers, this magic milk reduces inflammation and supports tissue healing and repair. Coconut milk is very pure. Only water is more pure. Coconut milk is full of calcium, essential vitamins/minerals and hydrates the body. It has been known to fight digestive issues and helps fight vomiting. It settles the stomach and is a good thing to drink to help cure a hang over. Monkey face milk is high in electrolytes, helps strengthen the immune system by combating digestive issues and has anti bacterial properties. Coconut milk is beneficial to the heart, it helps to keep your arteries clean.
Coconut Oil: has been called the "healthiest oil on earth."
Tip: It's best to cut your coconut right before you drink it.
