<p>Discover the healing power of coconut and how it can be used to treat common health problems.</p> <h2><span style="font-size:small;"><strong><em>Discover the healing power of coconut</em></strong></span></h2> <p><em>Coconut can be used to prevent and treat common health problems!</em></p> <p>The book 'Kokosnoot geneest' is one of the best books ever written by Dr Bruce Fife, the leading coconut specialist and expert. In his own words:</p> <p><em>'The coconut is called the king of foods. It is used both as food to sustain life and as medicine to restore health. Tradition has it that eating the fruit of the coconut palm is one of the secrets to good health and a long life. As far as I know, no other food has as much to offer when it comes to health as the coconut. </em></p> <p><em>Many people have lived for long periods on little more than coconuts alone. Some island populations thrive on a diet consisting mainly of coconut. </em><em>Generations have lived free from the diseases, disorders and afflictions of modern society. Few, if any, foods can provide the nutrients and medicinal substances the human body needs so well. Coconut truly is the king of foods.</em></p> <p><em>The flesh of a fully mature coconut is firm, white and slightly sweet, with a nutty flavour. In the tropics, immature coconuts, also known as green or young coconuts, are a delicacy. Their flesh is only partly developed and has a jelly-like texture. </em><em>It is soft enough to eat with a spoon and tastes distinctly different from the flesh of a mature coconut. The soft flesh of a young coconut is often given to babies as their first solid food while they are still breastfeeding. As the coconut matures, its flesh becomes firmer and thicker. </em><em>Young coconuts spoil much faster than mature ones, so they are less commonly sold outside the tropics. When you do find them in temperate regions, they are kept refrigerated to prevent spoilage. As the coconut matures, its oil and fibre content increases.'</em></p> <p>Discover the remarkable health benefits of coconut flesh, milk, water and oil.
