i also have been advised by my dietician to avoid having tender coconut water every day as the potassium content in coconut water would agravate my diabetic status? i am puzzled !!!!

audich, India

I was told by a diabetician that the Diabetic persons must not take Coconut water as it contains rich Potassium. The diabetic drugs acts throgh liver ands passes on to kidneys. The coconut water thus gives adverse effect on the kidneys for diabetic persons.

Can anyone throw some more light on this aspect ?

I suggested my family and friends to follow. Manoj Nair New Delhi
