Features & Benefits
- Product Highlights
Cococin™ is a freeze-dried form of tender coconut liquid endosperm that is ideal for sports drinks, hair care and skin care formulations. Presence of proteins, amino acids, sugars, vitamins, minerals, and growth factors makes coconut water, an ideal medium to support healthy tissue growth. Coconut water, a nutrient-rich liquid endosperm of tender green coconut, is a refreshing and natural rehydration medium for the body. It also offers a higher amount of electrolytes, such as potassium and magnesium, and can be considered as a natural isotonic drink.
