Abstract
Young coconut water (Cocos nucifera Linn) is a natural isotonic beverage which contains most of the potassium that can replace lost minerals in the body and has great potential to prevent dieses, so this study aims to determine the effect of coconut water (Cocos nucifera lin) to increase levels potassium blood in mice (Mus musculus). This study is experimental with design 'Postes Only Control Group Design' using
multisensor to 24 mice of the same species is Mus musculus into 4 groups (6 mice per
group) with the criteria of sex male mice, aged 2-3 months, weight about 20-40 g with
normal potassium levels from 4.30 to 5.60 mmol / L. Of the samples analyzed obtained
blood potassium levels in mice that is group A without drinking coconut water (control)
of 4.65%, group B before taking 1 cc of coconut water amounted to 4.62% and after
drinking increases to 7.53%, group C before drinking 0.5 cc coconut water amounted to
4.87% and after taking into 6.27%, group D before drinking coconut water 0.1 cc of
4.20% and after taking into 5.40%. Results of One Way Anova analysis we can
conclude that there is the effect of coconut water (Cocos nucifera lin) to increase blood
potassium levels in mice (Mus musculus).
