After watching a recent show on foods can really lower your chances of cancer ~I was really suprised to see that coconut milk( water) was right on top of that list  ,even higher than the cruciferous vegtables! Next time I went shopping I picked this up  not sure if it is availablle at every store but probably more health oriented shops??)<br /><br />Now my husband and I drink about 1/2 C per day, we have not used it in cooking or baking, but I am not certain we will, as we are drinking it as is for reasons stated.<br /><br /> I cant say I love the stuff or if I will use it to flavor my tea  or his coffee) but it is an inexpensive way to get some added assurance for good health( we think)<br />It may be pricey if you use if for cereal or things like that .but we are very careful to take our D 3 vitamins, our omega 3's and our ground flaxseed everyday,( among other things) and this is a health choice for us~<br /><br />While I do cook from scratch and we have been working at growing most of our own veggies and fruits  We can them),,,, it is a deliberate choice at this time in our lives when we see so many friends w/ diabetes, the beginnnings of heart disease and other such illnesses who are not doing a THING to take care of themselves!  And believe me I know nothing is a guarantee b/c you can just get lousey genes too!) BUt,,,what they DO find out, it is worth it to us to incorporate into our dients~<br />Will this help?? Not sure yet. but the stats of cancer are very very low in countries that use and drink coconut juice ,which was pointed out to us on the show  these were Drs involved in research)<br />I can only hope all these things help... but I think it is unwise to eat well and then ingnore exercise time too ,,,DH is a marathoner  I am not, I am a swimmer) so we each do our own thing but we both walk a lot whenever weather allows<br />I will purchase this product again, , I want NO sweetners and no preservatatives , I just want my 1/2 - 1 Cup per day,<br />The biggest surprise was the carb count! One carb for 1/2 cup?? Now THAT is something that pleasese me also! I cant say I love this stuff from a taste point of view but I am getting used to it and will drink it every day from now on! Enjoy health living!
