    Ossie-Sharon. Can you tell me about the value of coconut water, and what to count it as? Also, is it a certain kind?

    Hi, nhhicks61. Coconut water is a particularly good source of potassium, and also provides a decent amount of manganese, selenium and some B-vitamins. One cup (8 fluid ounces of 240 ml) is considered one fruit exchange.
    The best type to buy is whatever does not contain any added sweeteners or artificial flavor, color, or preservative – even if the front of the label states “pure” or “100%,” still check the ingredients list to be sure.
