Coconut water is naturally rich in potassium and contains natural sugars, which can affect blood sugar levels. In a diabetic patient with kidney issues, regular consumption may not be advisable, especially if potassium levels are high (hyperkalemia). However, occasional intake in moderation may be fine, depending on overall sugar control and kidney function.
Since the patient is on insulin and other medications, I strongly recommend a personalized consultation to assess his specific case. Please reach out to me on WhatsApp at eight zero zero nine eight two one three three two for a more detailed discussion.
