  • Publication number: 20170196242
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a beverage that not only allows for rapid replenishment of water, carbohydrate and salt for the purpose of taking measures against heatstroke but also is comfortably drinkable. It was found that sliminess, bitterness, bad aftertaste and unpleasant finish derived from sodium can be reduced by adding coconut water. It was also found that lauric acid, which is a fatty acid abundant in coconut water, exerts an effect to reduce sliminess, bitterness and other discomforts derived from sodium. The present invention provides a lauric acid-containing beverage which is comfortably drinkable since sliminess, bitterness and other discomforts derived from sodium present in the beverage are reduced.
