Coconut products are worth eating not only because of their taste, but also because they are exceptionally healthy. There is a reason why the coconut palm is called the "tree of life". The white flesh of coconut contains many nutrients. Consuming coconut in various forms is recommended for problems with dementia, overweight, mycoses, and even as a valuable supplement to the diet in cancer diseases. It stimulates the metabolism, regulates the bacterial flora of the intestines and gastrointestinal tract, lowers the level of cholesterol. It is very nutritious and is a source of easily digestible energy. Coconut paste consists of 70% saturated fatty acids, contains a lot of vitamins (E, B, C) and minerals (calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, zinc).
