Coconut water and coconut kernel contain microminerals and nutrients,which are essential to human health,and hence coconut is used as food by the peoples in the globe,mainly in the tropical countries.The coconut palm is,therefore,eulogised as ’Kalpavriksha’(the all giving tree) in Indian classics,and thus the current review describes the facts and phenomena related to its use in health and disease prevention. 关键词：COCONUT MEDICINAL PROPERTY NUTRITIONAL value Disease PREVENTION
