Coconut water contains many natural electrolytes such as potassium, magnesium, sodium, calcium - minerals important for the functioning of the nervous system and muscles. When working stressfully, sweating a lot or prolonged stress, the body is prone to dehydration, electrolyte disorders, causing fatigue, lethargy, mild headache, reduced concentration. Drinking coconut water helps replenish water, supports nerve transmission, thereby reducing temporary fatigue.
In which, magnesium helps relax nerves, limit muscle spasms; potassium supports blood pressure stabilization, improves blood circulation, and helps the brain receive enough oxygen and nutrients. As a result, people who are tired due to lack of water or short-term stress may feel more comfortable and alert after drinking coconut water. However, if fatigue originates from chronic stress, lack of sleep, anxiety or depression, coconut water cannot solve it thoroughly.
Healthy people should drink about 200-300 ml of fresh coconut water/day, appropriate in the morning or after exercise; avoid drinking too much at once or using it late in the evening because it is easy to have bloating and nighttime urination. People with low blood pressure, kidney failure or needing to limit potassium should consult a doctor before using regularly.
If fatigue, difficulty concentrating lasts for many weeks, accompanied by insomnia, headache, anxiety, you need to see a specialist to find the cause. In addition, maintaining enough sleep, eating balanced meals, light exercise and limiting alcohol, caffeine will help improve neurological health sustainably.
