Coconut water: (y) 1.Coconut water is often called Mother Nature’s sports drink. Many people recommend it to athletes. However, people don’t realize that coconut water is a natural drink; hence, it may vary in its potency. It can only temporarily hydrate athletes, but cannot substitute other power sports drinks that are needed for a steady performance and quick energy boost. It is low in carbohydrates and rich in potassium. The athletes do not quite require this combination for sure. 2. Increases Blood Sugar: Coconut water may not fall under sugary drinks but still it does contain carbohydrates and calories. People with blood sugar should give it a miss in between and not drink it every day. It is preferably not the best option as a daily drink. 3. Does Not Help Lose Weight: Coconut water, unlike what most people believe, does not help lose weight. In fact, it comes packed with calories. It contains magnesium, phosphorus and vitamin C. But these nutrients are found in minuscule quantities in coconut water. You might want to sip on plain water for shedding some extra kilos. It also doesn’t help fight cancer either.
