Coconut water has long been recognised for its health benefits. It not only keeps you cool in the summer, but it also doubles as a powerful sports drink for an instant energy boost. Coconut water is low in calories and high in natural enzymes, minerals, and antioxidants. But did you know it's also a great post-workout drink? The actress explained why coconut water is better than sugary drinks after a good workout session in her Tuesday tips with Bhagyashree. 

"Coconut water is more hydrating and a superior alternative to sports drinks post-workout," the actress said. "Not everything that is fancy and expensive is better," she added. 

Consuming this simple drink and reducing calories (which are consumed by various other energy drinks) may increase the body's electrolyte content. Coconut water, which is high in potassium, magnesium, and phosphorus, provides your body with much-needed nutrients after a workout while also aiding in faster recovery.
