Question: Dear Doctor,

Is there any side effect of using coconut water daily (one glass). I read somewhere coconut water have more potassium and less sodium, Does it will effect any health complication if we used daily.

Nothing in normal person

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic

There are no side effects of drinking coconut water daily in normal person. Human body is very efficient in dealing with low and high electrolytes. So no issues.

In fact it is a good way to rehydrate, revive energy and to flush out toxins from body.

If a person is suffering from kidney issues, then he needs to think about all this.

Hope it helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
