Coconut not only in sweets
We are used to consuming coconut mostly only in a sweet form. However, it should appear in our menu more often and in different forms. It has many beneficial effects on human health.
Coconut flesh can be eaten fresh or dried, and thanks to it you will get a lot of fiber in your body. This will speed up your metabolism, support bowel function and also keep you full for a long time. Therefore, coconut is suitable for various diets and weight loss.
Coconut maintains the correct level of cholesterol, contains quality fats, and with it you get a lot of protein, magnesium, calcium and B vitamins into your body. Thanks to this, you will have a positive effect on your nervous system. Regular consumption of coconut provides relief from psoriasis and various types of eczema.
Although the pulp contains a lot of fiber, it is not so easily digestible, so you should not consume too much of it. However, you should eat it regularly. For example, one tablespoon of grated coconut per day is ideal. You can then add it to yogurt, oatmeal, cottage cheese or even a fruit salad.
Coconut milk is also healthy. That is why we have for you wonderful recipes for Indian tikka masala , to which coconut milk is added.
