Then the question is coming. We often drink coconut milk. Can we give infusion to patients? I believe many people have never heard of it. In fact, I didn't believe it at first, but the American Chinese Journal of Emergency Medicine is an authoritative medical magazine, so its authenticity is undeniable. But why can coconut milk do it?
First, I don't know if you have observed the infusion process in the hospital. Do you think it is the same as drinking coconut milk? You must insert a tube and then slowly drain the liquid along it. Therefore, the effect of coconut milk infusion is similar to that of infusion, and some critically ill patients are treated by doctors with poor medical conditions. After all, it is better to give up directly than to be a dead horse.
The second reason is that the coconut water you usually drink is similar to human plasma. In World War II, due to the cruelty of the war, the lack of medical conditions and the shortage of plasma, battlefield doctors had to find ways to supplement nutrition for soldiers. If they don't solve it, more people will die every minute. So the battlefield doctor thought of using coconut water instead of plasma to treat the wounded. I didn't expect that since it was accepted by the human body, more wounded people would be saved.
The third reason is that coconut milk can be used as physiological saline, because coconut milk can effectively supplement human nutrition and improve human disease resistance. Therefore, in wartime, when the medical level is low, coconut milk will be chosen to treat the wounded. For example, in Cambodia, coconut milk is called "suspended seawater", because it can supplement the commercial ingredients that the human body lacks, so it is named coconut milk.
Coconut juice can be used to infuse patients. This method has been spread to this day, especially in many field rescue situations, when encountering excessive blood loss or major diseases, coconut juice will be used instead of intravenous injection.
