Here’s what she said.

*Coconut water is one of the best drinks to combat summer heat and also serves as a powerful natural sports drink for an instant boost of energy.
*It can be a great way to rehydrate after a hard, sweaty workout.
*Swap coconut water for a traditional sports drink and skip the added sugar and other synthetic ingredients.
*It’s low in calories and easy on stomach.
*Reduce pigmentation, good for acne, dull and dry skin.
*Great hangover cure. Alcohol causes dehydration which may lead to a headache and a nauseous feeling the next morning. Coconut water helps in fighting both and also restores the lost electrolytes.

Besides the ones listed, coconut water is considered a powerful drink which works against ageing. As per a report in Medical News Today, cytokinins, found in plants, are also present in coconut water. Their compounds are generally considered as anti-ageing.

Coconut water is also known to be a good source of calcium which helps in protecting the bones.
