Coconut Water Review from ConsumerLab

Our tests revealed that one coconut water product inaccurately listed the amount of sugar it provided. In addition, sugar levels ranged across the products by 64%, sodium by 460%, magnesium by 870%, and the amount of potassium in a cup of each ranged from 285 mg to 490 mg. We also found that you could spend from 72 cents to as much as $1.98 for a cup of coconut water.

Good report. But u recommended Gatorade for sodium. Then talk about the sugar in coconut water? Gatorade has tons of sugar.

My ancestors THRIVED off of coconut water. Coconut water > Gatorade. Lol

Coconut water is a natural balanced liquid ! We drank it in Mexico instead of the contaminated well water for months and felt great ! The sugar in coconut water is a natural ( unless sugar was added ) sugar, not refined white (cane sugar) and doesn't have the same negative effect on the body !! I wanted to make that distinction !!

Disagree with people having enough potassium

Working 12 hour shifts in a paper mill, I tried every drink I thought would help prevent muscle cramps . I found V8 Low Sodium with potassium Vegetable juice ( Ice Cold ), and it's oddly refreshing compared to sugary sports drinks .

Thanks god, in my country coconut is not too expensive, 1 young coconut (contain 3 - 4 glass in this video) cost is only Rp. 8000, and 1 young super coconut is only Rp. 12000 (1 USD = Rp. 15000).
Thanks god for giving us a lot of coconut tree, and we can drink coconut water everytime n everywhere.

Electrolit Pedialyte Coconut has all benefits and of all these only having less sugar!

[lagawempsfs]

I stopped listening when he said Gatorade 🥴

We got a load of naked coconut water cheap as it’s nearing its expiration date. One cup a day over ice is lovely and refreshing!

Pretty sure most of us are actually deficient in Potassium and when you have more toxins in the body, which majority of the population does these days (esp. in last ten years as tested through Aphresis in Germany), toxins displace potassium and cause cellular dysfunction. In saying all that, the high sugar in Coconut Water may not make it the best choice for upping levels every day. Would be neat to see the report! Thanks!

We are a little particular to the real thing on our farm, but you will notice majority coco waters are from concentrate. Naked Juice Organic and Costco Organic are in my opinion best option if real coconut not available.

[brettcorner]

There's coconut water (which is from actual coconut) and then there's the stuff on your table that you're talking about...Industrially modified stuff are manipulated for profit . Aide from not being fresh and environmentally friendly, they are never the same as the real stuff.

[TehLiquid]

True, but a gatorade would have considerably more sugar in it compared to coconut water.

[raymondreddington]

I would not recommend Gatorade if you need a little bit more sodium I would sprinkle a pinch of Himalayan sea salt in it

[Freddyfrm]

Zico coconut is pure coconut water. If you notice on the other brands it says 100% juice but Zico is 100% coconut water. Deffo the baste tasting in my opinion and most natural in terms of taste(Zico)
Nirvana is delicious but I think they add a little more sugar to make it sweeter. After Zico Vita Coco is next best for taste IMO.

[werjqer]

But what about real coconut water from the actual coconut instead of a plastic bottle, all those coconut water that was tested has a bunch of added ingredients

[mikemartin]

I do wish you guys who comment on theses hydration drinks would at least agree with each other. Some say that Gatorade is full of sugar and Coconut water is the way to go. Here you're telling us that Gatorade is better because of the sodium content. No wonder us mere mortals are so thoroughly confused by it all

So what's the best substitute for water for someone who doesn't drink water. I've tried fruit-flavoured water, sparkling water and other types of water but finally found coconut water. I was a Coca-Cola drinker for over 40 years, 6-8 cans a day until I found coconut water.
