Altevita BIO coconut milk 160g

Coconut milk  is considered  an excellent substitute for cow's milk, and is particularly suitable for those who suffer from lactose intolerance or an allergy to cow's milk. Coconut is rich in a range of vitamins, B1, B2, E, niacin and B6. Among minerals it contains iron, phosphorus, magnesium, calcium, potassium and sodium.

Coconut milk has a naturally sweet taste. It is richer in calories and saturated fatty acids (otherwise harmful fats), which, however, in the case of coconut do not raise cholesterol: they lower the level of bad cholesterol, raise the level of good cholesterol and help regulate blood pressure.  Coconut milk is a fast source of energy, as it also contains the types of triglycerides that the brain can easily convert into energy, without  needing to be processed through the digestive tract.

Coconut milk is essentially not milk in the traditional sense of the word. It contains no milk and no lactose, but it is rich in fats and valuable minerals. Coconut milk is a liquid that naturally occurs in ripe (brown) coconuts, held within the coconut flesh. When we open a fresh coconut, the milky white substance that flows out of it is natural coconut water. When we blend it with the coconut flesh and strain it, a thicker coconut milk is produced. Ripe  coconuts yield more coconut milk, while younger ones (about five to seven months old) are a better source of coconut water. As the nut ripens, more and more of the water inside turns into flesh.

It stimulates the activity of the immune system, has a beneficial effect on cardiovascular health, supports blood formation, and fights excess yeast in the body, viruses (flu, herpes) and bacteria that cause, for example, urinary tract infections, among others. In general it increases energy and stamina and improves digestion.
