Everything I've read says it does contain it.

Re: Bruce's latest book

Coconut water does not contain lauric acid. Lauric

acid is in the white coconut milk and coconut oil from

the processing of the white coconut milk.

Mr. Sev Magat, coconut expert, can settle this for us.

As you say all the research I have found also says it contains it but to be

honest I'll go with Bruce on this one... Dxx

And the question would be..why? Not that it matters ;-)

But isn't there some chemical analysis/breakdown of coconut water

out there somewhere? It can't be what I'm seeing on websites- if that's

the case I'll go back to Gatorade.

It just seems reasonable to assume that since the coconut meat/oil

contains it, the water must contain SOME. Even a trace amount is

more than " none " though.

WHY would you take a man made drink over God's? it seems as though you just

don't want cw to be good for you? I could be way off base, but it just comes

across that way. coconut isso wonderful for your body, i can'rt see why the

water would be bad, unless you ae one of the very few that are allergic to it.

Hi !

I was mentioned by Banagale as one who could give light on the presence

or absence of lauric acid in coconut water. Just to be certain I checked

reliable references, and definitely coconut water has very low (0.12%) to nil

amounts of fats (lipids). Lauric acid (converted to monolaurin in our body) is

one of the 10 fatty acids found coconut oil (48 -52% lauric fatty acid).

Coconut oil (CNO) is extracted from the coconut milk (derived from the coconut

meat) and contains several saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, dominated by

the saturated and stable medium chain saturated fats and the short chains ones

(capric and caprylic). Many recognized and learned authorities on plant fats and

oils had mentioned this many times.

On the otherhand, the 7-8 month old young/tender nut with the natural tender

coconut water or TCW) ( considered a liquid endosperm contrast to the solid

endosperm or coconut meat), a also a major component of the nut, contains

mainly moisture (90 -95%), carbohydrates, mineral nutrients (dominated in the

decreasing order potassium>chloride> sodium> calcium = magnesium, etc ).

Because of the balance contents of positive and negative ions, it serves a

natural energy or sports/isotonic drink, among many health benefits. It is

generally claimed that once you have tasted the natural TCW (a super refreshing

and energy drink), you always desire it. Nothing compares to it, and for those

people leaving in the tropics where coconut palms are grown extensively, TCW is

always available at avery cheap price.

Cheers,

Sev Magat

I agree that TCW is one of the tastiest things to drink..but always available at

a very

cheap price??? Here in the Midwest(USA) we're not exactly coconut country.

May I ask what references you're referring to regarding the fat content of

water? I'm still

looking for a complete breakdown of known substances in TCW.

But it seems it does contain SOME..so I don't know why anyone would say NONE.

After all,

it's the combination of things that make these things so great, right?! ;-)

Hi !

Greetings from the Philippines !

The main reference book I reviewed for the subject information referred to :

Technical Data Handbook on the Coconut, its products and by-products (a

compilation), published by the Philippine Coconut Authority (1979). There are 8

pages of this handbook devoted to coconut water alone, covering results and

findings of scientific and technological workers, local and elsewhere ( as in

India, Sri Lanka).

As to " none " contents of fats (lipids) of the tender coconut water (TCW),

please check my email, it states " very low to nil " , but not " none at all " . It

was mentioned this way because the reported data obtained by workers ranged or

varied. Thanks for your patience !

Cheers,

Sev Magat

Re: Bruce's latest book

I'd still like to see a breakdown of the coconut water. I've asked

some

who sell the stuff, and they indicate that there's not much lauric

acid in it, but none of them have said " none " .

Here's a place that sells young coconuts: " Coconut Water is Better

than processed baby milk- It contains lauric acid, which is present

in human mother's milk "

http://www.rawguru.com/store/raw-food/organic_wild_young_coconuts.html

That compilation, it says, was written by Kohler. Doing a search

for his name and coconuts it seems he's written some other things on

coconuts as well. Has a couple of " raw food " websites. Doesn't make

him an expert..but....

But that still doesn't give the lauric acid content, even for the oil. Unless

someone knows

which one it is- 16:1 undifferentiated?? etc.

Should we trust the USDA anyway? Ha!

I'm not sure what you're referring to though. The link with the

" breakdown " of the coconut water? The " breakdown " seems to have

come from the USDA or whatever gov't agency I mentioned before.

You can see there's a link to it anyway.

But again, what was the % of lauric acid there?

Re: Bruce's latest book

and others in the group,

Mr. Magat is a coconut expert at the Philippine

Coconut Authority. He has done extensive research on

all aspects of the coconut tree, fruit, oil, water

etc. He is like a walking " dictionary " on coconuts.

Shalom...

I was basically joking, saying that if what they say on some of the websites

is all that's in Coconut water, one could just as well drink Gatorade. Meaning-

obviously there is more in coconut water and those sites I saw aren't very

helpful

in explaining that.

I LOVE coconut water. As I said before- I'd drink it year-round if I could

afford it.

Hey Sev(as in seven? Or sieve?)

The " none " comment wasn't yours..so no need to worry ;)

They haven't updated that since 1979??
