Thanks for the valuable update! In the form of Coconut Trees, Nature has given India desalination plants all around its sea coast
Its a very useful piece of information. Thanks.
However, I feel that you should also cover some of the medicinal benefits of coconut water, because that would make this information more meaningful. For example, regular use of coconut water melts the stones and removes them, if you have some. If you don’t have any than it would never appear.
Thanks for your efforts.

Good to know this.. In Kerala especially, we have lot of Coconut trees, but less informed about its greatness. Infact almost all the parts of a coconut tree is useful. Wood, shell, flower, fibers, leaves etc other than the coconut and the water itself.
We use lot of coconut in our daily lives, when it comes to cooking. As children we will be fighting to get coconut water from mother when she breaks one for cooking. Nice memories.
I some times use tender coconut as alternative food for my lunch when I am out. It has both food and drink inside, so you get your thirst and hunger down and of course a safer and cheaper meal too. Now with this information feel better as a coconut user. Thank you
