coconut-ty

Sick for 5 days it was mild dengue fever, why mild??
Well the doc said I have a good immune system which eventually prevented the full symptoms,
the headache was enough to torture me, the feeling of blowing a balloon till it stretches out, the same tension I'm feeling.
Cannot imagine that? go try it yourself.
Until yesterday my sis told me to try coconut then i said why hit my head with it? haha
Kidding only then i realized dengue or even normal fever that causes constipation or diarrhea actually prevents water from being absorbed by the cells in the body-another term is dehydration.
Every time people hear this word, drink 100 plus, no it has no effect in this case besides making u fat like a pig.

Coconut, in some native place is termed/known to be even purer than water itself.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coconut_water<<< check out this website. Coconut contains high levels of potassium and minerals, it has cooling effect towards our body.
It re hydrates our body (not 100plus) by causing an influx and efflux of ions causing the absorption of water into our cells.
While water does not contain much minerals will pass by the tract leaves the body.
So i thank the Lord that coconut exist.
