{Vita CoCo}
It is no secret that I 'am a huge fan of coconut water! I was first introduced to coco water by a friend, right before a big race last year. Hydration is key during a race to avoid cramping, improved performance and ensure a good recovery. I now make sure to bring along a few Vita CoCo's to every race I participate in, and also include them in my diet to help me through long training days!
Packed Race Food (for my last relay)-- :) Vita CoCo is in the center!
Vita CoCo comes in a portable, recyclable container! This makes it a perfect on the go drink! It even fits perfectly in my tri suit pocket when I'm on a long bike ride.
My new favorite flavor!
You just can't go wrong with any flavor!
What are the Benefits of Coconut water?
- It contains 5 electrolytes that our bodies need, Potassium, magnesium, phosphorous, sodium and calcium!
- It is an all natural drink, it does not contain any perservatives, fats or cholesterol.
- Aids in Digestion
- Helps prevent acne!
- Contains more potassium then 2 bananas!
- It also contains 15 times more potassium then leading sports drinks.
- Contains Vitamin C which helps improve your immune system!
- Can help lower blood pressure.
Those are some benefits to drink to! I will admit that since I have been drinking coconut water, my face has been clearer then it has been in the past, and I don't cramp up as easy during a swim when I have one before. I also consumed one after each one of my legs of the epic relay and my recovery was great! I was back in the gym the next day!
Nutrition Facts:
The nutrition facts are fantastic to boot. This is the tangerine flavor. Rounding in at 70 calories, 0 fat, with 740 mg of Potassium!! It does contain about 17g of sugar but be aware that it is naturally occurring sugar and not artificial, added sugar/syrup that is other leading sports drinks and sodas.
The first time I tasted Coconut water I was expecting a Pina colada taste. However, that is not the case.. so don't expect that or you will be disappointed. Its more of a mild taste that takes a little getting used to. After trying a few different flavors I became use to the natural flavor of a coconut! Personally, my favorite coconut water are the ones with added fruit! They give it a little extra sweetness.
Vita CoCo has offered to give one lucky winner a whole CASE of assorted flavors!
