Coconut Water

Submitted by bitbygug on Fri, 12/09/2011 - 1:05pm

 I know everybody is sceptical about foods lowering eye pressure, but I just read an article from Body Ecology dot com saying that coconut water (not milk) may lower eye pressure for 2 1/2 hours. It references: Poblete, G.S. et al. "The Effect of Coconut Water on Intraocular Pressure of Normal Subjects." Phillip J. Opthal: 1999; 24 (1).

1. Has anybody read this article?

2.  If anybody has a copy of the article, could you please post the relevant parts here?

3.  Opthalmologists: Is this a reputable journal?

4.  Where can I as non-medical layman, purchase a copy?

 

Thanks, JAN
