One of the best treats I indulge in on occasion is young coconut water. Mikey opens them up- he enjoys that- and we both love to drink the refreshing water that is inside! After we drink the water I use a melon baller (because it is sharp and rounded, the meat is not really going to be sphere shaped) to scrape the coconut meat out and use it in raw cookies or smoothies or raw curries and salads. Make sure that when you choose your young coconut there are not any brown or pink spots on the outside- the water inside should be clear- not pink. It was really hard not to smile while sipping for the pic because the water is soooo delicious and you can instantly feel the health benefits from this tropical treat. Young coconut water is naturally filtered through the coconut husk. It is one of the best sources of electrolytes one can find! It is great for the skin, the blood, the mind and the heart! Enjoy young coconut water as often as you can! There are so many benefits that I could not list them all; however if you're curious I suggest you google it because you may be surprised to see all of the benefits and uses. I want to reach more people and encourage them to live in a clean vessel; I am currently trying to figure out how! We are blessed with these amazing bodies that heal and work and play and rest and so much more- but what do you do to keep your body clean (inside and out) and working its best?! Be conscious, Be aware of what you are eating and drinking, what you are washing your clothes with, the soap you are using on your body, and so much more. It is sad what is happening in the big grocery stores, schools, doctors offices and in popular culture. People look at us who are concsiously choosing a healthy lifestyle and say things like "how can you do that to yourself?" or "Ewww, it's green!" when they see us drinking green smoothies. We are making the choice to be healthy and to question popular culture of what is healthy. What I am doing to myself is rewarding myself with God's goodness! I refuse to feel like crap by putting junk in my body! When God created the Earth he gave us everything we need to survive long healthy lives- how old was Moses? 500 something years? He did not live that long by drinking protein shakes, eating energy bars, pop tarts, lunchables, or McDonalds for goodness sake! He was eating whole foods! I could go on- but I have to run- I'll get back to this another time! Peace up, GIVING THANKS!
