Now let's see what are the benefits of coconut water.
And potassium regulates many functions in our body.

smooth functioning of heart and muscles.
Since potassium is not produced naturally in our body, so we need to outsource it.
And you get 15-20% of the daily potassium requirement of body just with 1 coconut water.
And it is also very beneficial for those who are having problem of muscle cramps
Because potassium deficiency is one of the common reason for muscle cramps
Which gets cured on drinking coconut water.
Now because of benefits, it doesn't mean that you can consume it in large quantity
Because on consuming in high quantity, potassium levels in the body increases
And too much of potassium can lead to kidney problems,
irregular heart beats and might interfere with blood pressure control.
So 1 glass per day would be enough.
Electrolytes are those minerals which maintain fluid balance and regulates muscle function.
These are sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium and phosphorus.
And hydration levels also remains good on consuming coconut water.
And when you'll be better hydrated, you'll feel more energetic, will have good mood and
Brain, muscles and heart will work smoothly.
