Plant-Based Milk Alternatives and Risk Factors for Kidney Stones and Chronic Kidney Disease
2022 May Journal of Renal Nutrition Borin JF, Knight J, Holmes RP, Joshi S, Goldfarb DS, Loeb S
The study found that oat, macadamia, rice, and soy milk compare favorably with dairy milk in terms of kidney stone risk factors, while almond and cashew milk have more potential stone risk factors. Coconut milk may be a favorable substitute for patients with chronic kidney disease based on low potassium, sodium, and oxalate.

Review Article Alzheimer's Disease High Blood Pressure Osteoporosis
The study utilized comprehensive analysis to assess the chemical profile of coconut water, identifying a range of components including phytohormones, enzymes, antioxidant compounds, vitamins, minerals, and phenolic compounds. These components are known to contribute to the water's biological activity and pharmacological effects, thereby enabling a raft of medicinal properties inherent to coconut water. The water was found to feature anti-microbial, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-hypertensive, rejuvenating, hepatoprotective, hypolipidemic, and diuretic properties.
An examination of the therapeutic effects of coconut water revealed a significant impact on gastric dysfunction, dysentery, and child malnutrition alongside notable capabilities to manage hypertension. The water was found to promote exercise performance, reduce swelling, dissolve kidney stones, improve kidney function, improve digestion, relieve constipation, reduce the risk of heart disease, lower high blood pressure, and improve cholesterol levels. Consumption of tender coconut water was specifically found to reduce the risk of heart disease, help prevent Alzheimer’s disease pathologies and prevent osteoporosis in experimental animals. The unique nutritional profile of coconut water was also found to provide it with the capacity to balance body chemistry and fight cancer.
