Which is more beneficial to the body? Is it coconut milk or coconut water? I like drinking coconut water because they say it is a good for cleansing the digestive system. Coconut milk sometimes makes my stomach not feel good. What do you think?

I very much liked drinking coconut water before, when I was younger. Very tasty, and very refreshing. But, these days, I have to stay away from it and any thing that contains coconut in it, because that aggravates my blood pressure. Within minutes, my blood pressure would rise and I would become very dizzy if I drink coconut milk.

Both coconut water and coconut milk are beneficial to the body, however, they have different usages, some people used coconut milk as laxative. It is also used to treat mouth ulcers. Coconut water is good for urinary tract infection (UTI), it acts as diuretics thus increases the flow of urine.
