*COCONUT WATER / MADAFU*

*Here is some information about Coconut Water:

'It's a natural isotonic beverage, with the
same level of electrolytic balance as we have in our blood.
It's the fluid of life, so to speak.'

During the Pacific War of 1941-45, both sides in the
conflict regularly used coconut water - siphoned directly
from the nut - to give emergency plasma transfusions to
wounded soldiers..

Most coconut water is still consumed fresh in tropical
coastal areas - once exposed to air, the liquid rapidly
loses most of its organoleptic and nutritional
characteristics, and begins to ferment.

Coconut Water is More Nutritious than whole milk - Less
fat and NO cholesterol!

Coconut Water is More Healthy than Orange Juice - Much
lower calories

Coconut Water is Better than processed baby milk- It
contains lauric acid, which is present in human
mother's milk

Coconut water is naturally sterile -- Water permeates
though the filtering husk!

Coconut water is a universal donor-- Its identical to
human blood plasma

Coconut Water is a Natural Isotonic Beverage - The same
level we have in our blood.

Coconut water has saved lives in 3rd world countries
thru Coconut IV.

Coconut water is the very stuff of Nature,
biologically Pure, full of Natural Sugars, Salts, and
Vitamins to ward off fatigue... and is the next wave of
energy drinks BUT natural!', according to Mortin
Satin, Chief of the United Nation's Food &
Agriculture Organization.

--
Always make your absence felt in such a way that somebody misses you, but
don't let your absence be so long that somebody starts learning to live
without you.

Life is a one way journey, not a destination. Travel it with a smile and
never regret anything.

Treat the earth well.....it was not given to you by your parents, it was
loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the earth from our
ANCESTORS, we borrow it from our children.

Ability is what you're capable of. Motivation determines what you do.
Attitude determines how well you do it.
