Coconut has several parts that can be consumed and used in dietary supplements. On the one hand, the best-known part is the pulp, from which the oil is extracted. It is rich in carbohydrates, proteins and lipids (notably lauric and oleic acid).
The oil extracted from the pulp is solid at room temperature and contains triglycerides with short and medium chain fatty acids. It should be consumed in moderation. On the other hand, the water or milk from the green coconut fruit is very hydrating and refreshing for the body.
It is important to take the dietary supplement according to the dosage recommended by the manufacturer and to follow a varied and balanced diet. People with cardiovascular and/or chronic diseases should consult a healthcare professional.
