Coconut sellers have said many a times that coconut water is good for the human body to refresh it.

And so it is very good to be drinking coconut fluid these times of sunny days.

When the sun is hot too much, you know you will loose more water from the body system.

One can get fainted so quick for being in the sun for hours.

So it is advisable always to drink regular water, coconut fluid or its fruit and other juices from some other fruits.

Such fruits like watermelons, oranges, pineapples, are good for the body system to work well.

They can keep the body cool and fresh under the hot sun.

To know that coconuts juices and fruits are vital for human body, a group of coconut sellers, have told Africa 24 journalist once that “this is good for first aid treatment of humans and for keeping the body fresh and nourished,” they said.

But the supply of the coconut fruits is not in plenty supply these days in Sierra Leone.

“We go as far as in villages beyond Port Loko to buy coconuts to sell and get a living,” said some coconut sellers at PZ in Freetown.

In Waterloo too, there are a few coconut sellers around.

But sometimes the farm products become short in supply when one observes the street along  the Tombo Junction in Waterloo, Western Area Rural District.

To avoid being fallen down due to the heat of the sun now, make it a habit to be drinking coconut juice.

All over the world, people are being affected seriously by the hot-burning sun as global warming continues to affect countries with temperatures rising fastly toward 2 degrees Celsius.

Scientists have said about 62 million people will be exposed to drought yearly if temperatures risk up to 2 degrees Celsius, a figure which is predicted to be well above otherwise when the sun heat could have just been at 1.5 degrees.

Recently as a day ago, two people were reported dead in Spain due to the scorching of the sun rays in Europe.

Swimming pools get hotter and hotter with glass ceiling offices becoming pretty discomfortable for workers.

Sierra Leone and the rest of Africa is experiencing the same global warming situation, with the sun getting more hot and hot.

So it’s always good to be keeping along with rubber sipping jars containing water.

And coconut water and jelly fruit can be additional supports to your health under the hot-burning sun.
