Sweet Coconut Bowl

GOOD TO KNOW

The coconut – actually not a nut, but a real Superfood!
The coconut belongs to the drupes and there are a lot of varieties: coconut milk, coconut water, coconut flour, coconut oil, coconut sugar, coconut mush, coconut flakes, coconut crisps, grated coconut, and of course you can enjoy the pure, fresh coconut pulp. But why is it calles a Superfood?
It contains high amounts of important vitamins, minerals and trace elements, especially high concentrations of potassium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, calcium and selenium and vitamin E and B. Furthermore it contains lauric acid (saturated fat) that increases the “good cholesterol”.

Nice To Know:
In Thailand mothers feed their babys with coconut milk instead of mother`s milk, if they can`t produce it on their own, because in the consistence of its chemical elements it is similar to the mother’s milk and therefore good for the babys.
