Benefits of Dessicated Coconut:

High Quality: Good quality DC is white, with no yellow spots, black spots and other discoloration. Good quality DC has a sweet coconut aroma, is free from rancidity and is uniform in size. Manganese Content: One ounce (28.3495 grams) of DC contains 0.778 mg of manganese. This amount fulfills almost 38% of the daily manganese requirement recommended by the Indonesian Ministry of Health. Manganese plays a role in energy metabolism and is required for the synthesis of blood clotting proteins, bone tissue, hormones and enzymes. Manganese also increases calcium absorption and helps regulate blood sugar levels.  

Fiber Content: One ounce (28.3495 grams) of DC contains 5 grams of fiber, which is equivalent to 17% of the daily fiber requirement. A high intake of dietary fiber from foods such as coconut can help prevent stroke, high blood pressure, heart diseases, obesity, high cholesterol, diabetes and digestive disorders such as hemorrhoids, constipation, and colon cancer.

Selenium Content: One ounce (28.3495 grams) of DC contains 5.2 mcg of selenium, equivalent to 17.3% of the daily requirement for selenium. The body uses selenium to produce enzymes that support thyroid function and the immune system, preventing DNA and tissue damage from free radicals.
