Health Benefits

Coconut milk is essentially made from two separate coconut products: the coconut water and the coconut cream. It is made by extracting these products directly from the coconut. Thanks to being a coconut extract it contains all the vitamins and minerals found in coconuts like, magnesium, iron, copper, manganese, vitamin C, selenium, and folate. These help your body to improve digestion, reduce inflammation, boost blood circulation, and stimulate weight loss. Coconut milk also contains a decent amount of electrolytes which helps with water retention.
