But the 'water' inside the coconut can be used as an IV drip ;-)
[provided it is taken in directly and not cross contaminated.
They used to do it in WW2 in the pacific theater.]

Purportedly, a coconut is fairly close to being a 'universal'
food, you can apparently survive on them as your sole food source
for a fair amount of time without problems.

The Quote Starts Here:
The liquid inside a coconut is *not* coconut milk.
Coconut milk is made by taking grated fresh coconut
and water and blending them together.  the resulting
liquid is then strained, and the pulp is discarded.
For commercial coconut milk, sugar is often added for
sweetness, as well as artificial thickeners.
