A member asked:
Can some table salt(sodium chloride) be mixed wid fresh unsweetened coconut water safely to make electrolyte drink?can this fix the low sodium/high potassium makeup of coconut water?and make it better balanced in getting sodium&potassium chloride?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Adding table salt to fresh coconut water will not be harmful, but just adding an occasional balanced electrolyte drink like Gatorade or Pediolyte will restore any unbalance in sodium/potassium without altering the taste of the coconut water.
