The Diuretic Effects of Coconut Water by Suppressing Aquaporin and Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System in Saline-Loaded Rats
2022 Jun 23 Frontiers in Nutrition Wei J, Zhao M, Meng K, Xia G, Pan Y, Li C, et al.
Coconut water demonstrated significant acute diuretic effects by increasing urine excretion and promoting the excretion of sodium and chloride ions without affecting calcium concentration and pH. In prolonged diuretic experiments, coconut water increased urine output and electrolyte concentrations (Na+, K+, Cl–), while also suppressing the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system and reducing aquaporin 1 (AQP1), AQP2, and AQP 3 expression and protein levels. These findings suggest coconut water could serve as a natural diuretic agent.

Systematic Review Mineral Water
This systematic review, adhering to PRISMA guidelines, evaluated the diuretic effects of natural mineral water on healthy individuals. Comprehensive searches were conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library up to November 2022, including both human and animal studies. A total of 12 studies were identified, predominantly from Italy and one from Bulgaria, covering publications from 1962 to 2019 for human studies and 1967 to 2001 for animal studies.
All included studies consistently reported an increase in diuresis following the consumption of natural mineral water, with some studies observing this effect after a single administration. However, the quality of these studies, especially the older ones, was noted to be suboptimal. The review underscores the need for newer clinical studies with improved methodological approaches and advanced statistical data processing to validate these findings more robustly.
