@wmz Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect!
How wonderful that you found something to help you in your kidney stone adventures. I want to caution you and everyone else, that coconut water has a large potassium amount, which is not recommended for those of us with chronic kidney issues. The Vitamin C in this water helps the creatinine levels in our kidneys, which is part of creating the kidney stones. As with any treatment, there is a variety of concerns and precautions to take when understanding what will be most beneficial to our own unique situation!

Welcome to Connect. Thanks for coming with a gift of knowledge. I have struggled with kidney stones. No one ever mentioned coconut water. I will check at Costco right away.
May you have happiness and the causes of happiness.
