Very clever! Coconuts rock! I was a little skeptical (although Ive not found anything untrue here so far) so I did a search and found this paper on the American Journal of Emergency Medicine The intravenous use of coconut water by The intravenous use of coconut water by Darilyn Campbell-Falck et al (2000) Medical resources routinely used for intravenous hydration and resuscitation of critically ill patients may be limited in remote regions of the world. When faced with these shortages, physicians have had to improvise with the available resources, or simply do without. We report the successful use of coconut water as a short-term intravenous hydration fluid for a Solomon Island patient, a laboratory analysis of the local coconuts, and a review of previously documented intravenous coconut use #Coconut #Medicine
