Get your Coconut Water In Sanskrit, the coconut palm is called “kalpa vriksha”, which is defined as “the tree which provides all the necessities of life”. A single coconut has as much protein as a quarter pound steak. Coconut oil, derived from aged coconut that has become copra, is thought to have healing properties particularly for the skin. You can purchase unprocessed, pure homemade coconut oil from Darkie’s Vegetable Stall in Port Elizabeth. The water, a clear liquid that pools inside green coconuts is high in electrolyte potassium and is so pure it was used as plasma inWWII. Coconut is considered to assist in immunity with antiviral, antifungal, antibacterial and antiparatic qualities. It is low on the glycemic index and raises good cholesterol. You can often find coconut water vendors in Port Elizabeth ... try it, it’s the ultimate health food!
