With our growth, harvesting coconuts helps safeguard the environment at the source from harmful pollutants. This is acting as incentive for other farmers to convert from chemical pesticides and fertilizers to clean, traditional farming methods. We had spent years tasting coconut water from across the world before we discovered Nam Hom. We provide stable, fair wages for farmers and help them obtain USDA organic certifications pending extensive audits. Our coconut water is only as good as the plants we harvest. Focusing on long-term development in Thailand, we are committed to building relationships with the Thai agroforestry communities. While the process sounds picturesque, the reality is very hard work.
The coconuts are collected, often via boats traveling canals that edge the palms. At peak flavor, young green coconuts are picked by hand and lowered to the ground by rope to prevent damage. Our unique coconuts are grown in organic agroforestry in Thailand. Ingredients are a product of their environment the soil, weather and surrounding flora and fauna all contribute to flavor. Like all produce, coconuts are not created equal. The best ingredients should be enjoyed just as nature grew them. We protect that flavor through a cutting-edge, proprietary manufacturing systems including straight coconut-to-bottle bottling and high pressure processing. We source unique 100% organic coconuts with a distinctly sweet and nutty flavor, and grown using traditional organic farming methods.
#HARMLESS HARVEST COCONUT WATER CASE CRACKED#
With heat pasteurized coconut waters lining the shelves, we reinvented the supply chain to maintain the integrity from freshly cracked nut to freshly cracked bottle. As in all raw ingredients, these delicate compounds are significantly altered when heated. The flavor, aroma, and nutrition found in the liquid inside young green coconuts, known as coconut water, is contained within volatile compounds. Grab one of these 10 nutritionist-approved coconut waters for a drink you can feel good about sipping on-whether you're hungover, drenched in sweat, or simply sick of water.As the creators of the first ready-to-drink raw coconut water, we developed the supply chain from the ground up, establishing the best practices, food safety, quality protocols, and pioneering processes to deliver the highest quality coconut water to you.
Many bottles contain multiple servings, so you'll quickly rack up the calories and sugar if you guzzle the whole thing. In addition to checking for added sugar, make sure you're also cognizant of serving sizes, adds Taub-Dix. This boils down to one major takeaway, no matter the item: read labels, Taub-Dix says, adding that some coconut waters "contain added sugar and other ingredients you might want to avoid."Ĭonsidering that a major study published in JAMA Internal Medicine recently linked high added sugar intake with an increased risk of dying from cardiovascular disease, limiting the stuff isn't a bad idea. "People are drawn to wellness names like 'natural' but these are more marketing terms," Spence says As an example, she says three common sweeteners-maple syrup, honey, and coconut sugar- all rank at approximately 52 on the GI scale. While people are inclined to purchase "healthy" sounding sugars-think agave, honey, and maple syrup-Spence points out there are only slight differences in their glycemic index (GI) numbers, which is assigned to foods depending on how they affect blood sugar. "It all digests in our body the same and our body can't tell the difference." "Sugar is sugar," says Shana Minei Spence, RDN, of The Nutrition Tea. Naturally low in calories and sugar (somewhere around 60 calories and 10 grams of sugar per serving), coconut water is overall pretty healthy-that is, as long as you choose the right bottle. It's a great way to rehydrate after a stomach bug, night out, or tough gym session, thanks to the electrolytes it contains, including manganese, potassium, and sodium, says Bonnie Taub-Dix, RDN, dietitian, and author of Read It Before You Eat It. Theres just no comparing Harmless Harvest to any canned coconut water, but if you feel this stuff is too expensive. Ive seen a smaller bottle for under 3 and a larger bottle for over 5. Coconut water is basically nature's Gatorade. tall cans sans pulp arrived today and after a quick 1 hour in the freezer, I just tried my first can.
