On the Nicobar Islands of the<br \/>\nIndian Ocean , whole coconuts were used as currency for the purchace of<br \/>\ngoods until the early part of the twentieth century. <\/p>\n<p>Coconuts<br \/>\nare the fruit of the coconut palm, botanically known as cocos nucifera,<br \/>\nwith nucifera meaning &#8216;nut-bearing.&#8217; The fruit-bearing palms are native<br \/>\nto Malaysia , Polynesia and southern Asia, and are now also prolific in<br \/>\nSouth America , India , the Pacific Islands , Hawaii and Florida . The<br \/>\nlight, fibrous husk allowed it to easily drift on the oceans to other<br \/>\nareas to propagate. In Sanskrit, the coconut palm is known as <em>kalpa vriksha,<\/em><br \/>\nmeaning &#8216;tree which gives all that is necessary for living,&#8217; since<br \/>\nnearly all parts of the tree can be used in some manner or another. The<br \/>\ncoconut itself has many food uses, including milk, meat, sugar and oil<br \/>\nas well as functioning as its own dish and cup. The husk was also<br \/>\nburned for fuel by natives, but today a s! eed fibre called <em>coir<\/em><br \/>\nis taken from the husk and used to make brushes, mats, fishnets, and<br \/>\nrope. A very potent fermented toddy or drink is also made from the<br \/>\ncoconut palm&#8217;s sap. Coconut oil,<br \/>\na saturated fat made fro! m dried coconut meat, is used for commercial<br \/>\nfrying and in candies and margarines, as well as in non-edible products<br \/>\nsuch as soaps and cosmetics. <\/p>\n<p>Although it takes up to a year<br \/>\nfor coconuts to mature, the trees bloom up to thirteen times a year, so<br \/>\nfruit is constantly forming yielding a continuous harvest year-round.<br \/>\nAn average harvest from one tree runs about 60 coconuts, with some<br \/>\ntrees yielding three times that amount. The coconut&#8217;s name is a bit of<br \/>\na misnomer, since it is botanically classified as a drupe and not a<br \/>\nnut.. It is the largest seed known. <\/p>\n<p>If<br \/>\nyou&#8217;ve ever opened a fresh coconut, you will have seen the thin, opaque<br \/>\nalmost clear coconut juice or water which has a slight almond flavor.<br \/>\nContrary to popular belief, this is <em>not<\/em><br \/>\nthe coconut milk. However, the water is consumed as a drink fresh from<br \/>\nthe coconut by many, and it can also be used in recipes. <\/font><font size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\" color=\"green\"><\/p>\n<p>Here is some information about Coconut Water<\/font><u><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana\" color=\"blue\"> <\/font><\/u><u><font size=\"2\" face=\"Tahoma\" color=\"blue\"><br \/><\/font><\/u><font size=\"2\" face=\"Tahoma\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rawguru.com\/store\/raw-food\/organic_wild_young_coconuts.html\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"http:\/\/www.rawguru.com\/store\/raw-food\/organic_wild_young_coconuts.html\"><font face=\"Verdana\">http:\/\/www.rawguru.com\/store\/raw-food\/organic_wild_young_coconuts.html<\/font><\/a><\/font><font size=\"4\" face=\"Tahoma\"> <\/font><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana\" color=\"#604200\"><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s<br \/>\na natural isotonic beverage, with the same level of electrolytic<br \/>\nbalance as we have in ! our blood.
