Coconut Water has achieved worldwide popularity in the better-for-you beverage segment with soaring sales figures and an abundance of celebrity endorsements. Certified Organic CocOganic™ gives you the competitive edge by taking the health benefits of Coconut Water one step further, and provides the ideal ingredient to propel your product to the next level of success.

Applications:
CocOganic™ is prepared from organic, freeze-dried coconut water and is available in a highly soluble powdered format for exceptional ease of use and convenience. Freeze-dried CocOganic™ has been designed especially to meet the requirements of many formulas for a certified organic, highly soluble Coconut Water powder with no filler added.

Coconut Water beverages are extremely popular with health conscious consumers and are especially valued as an all natural, hydration drink. CocOganic™ can be rehydrated to form an all natural beverage with no sweetener or other additives needed. CocOganic™ is certified organic. It is naturally isotonic, containing similar concentrations of salts and sugar as the human body. CocOganic™ makes a refreshing alternative to soda and juice and combines well with exotic fruits such as lychee, açai, jabuticaba and mango.

Active Constituents:
Coconut water is rich in natural electrolytes, especially magnesium and potassium. It is considered an excellent source of potassium, a nutrient that plays a key role in maintaining muscle and nerve function.

Coconut water contains a natural abundance of vitamins (especially the B vitamins), minerals and trace elements including zinc, selenium, iodine, sulfur, and manganese. It also contains enzymes, amino acids, antioxidants and phytonutrients.

Coconut water is the richest dietary source of cytokinins, plant hormones that may have anti-aging effects on human cells and tissues and are generating exciting research results. Coconut water is hypoallergenic and alkalizing, helping to restore a natural pH balance in the body and counter the effects of an acidic diet.

History:
Coconut water has been a favorite beverage of Asian and Pacific cultures for thousands of years. The Hawaiians called it “noelani” which means “dew from the heavens”.

Our CocOganic™ is organically grown in the Philippine islands by subsistence farmers using traditional sustainable farming practices including intercropping with compatible native species and fertilisation with palm fronds and natural sea salt. Many of the trees are so healthy, they are still producing at 60 to 80 years of age. Warmed by the sun and watered by almost daily tropical downpours, coconuts grow year round in the Philippines. In fact, the Philippines is the world’s largest producer of coconuts! In order to support sustainable coconut growing, NP Nutra^® partners with Philippine organic organizations that provide regular training for growers, supplies organic coconut seedlings at cost, and offers record keeping and certification assistance and financial incentives.

When coconuts reach optimum ripeness at 9 to 10 months of age, they are hand harvested using traditional harvesting tools and immediately processed. CocOganic™ is freeze-dried in modern, state of the art facilities to preserve coconut water’s natural nutrient and flavor profile. NP Nutra^® is honoured to offer what we believe to be the highest quality certified organic Coconut Water product available on the market today – CocOganic™!
