Survivorman Finds 5 Uses for a Coconut, for Survival

Renee HarrisMay 5, 2011

One more reason to love the hard lotion bar’s ingredients:

Who better to give us the scoop on coconuts than Survivorman, the reality series survivor expert who uses his abandonded surroundings to feed, protect and shelter himself.

In his South Pacific episode, he finds five uses for the coconut:

1. Inside the coconut, the husk makes a great fire starter

2. Drink the coconut water

3. Eat the coconut meat

4. Smear the “coconut mush” (the meat) over the face to protect the skin from the sun

5. Use the coconut shell as a bowl to roast clam over an open fire

Survivorman Les Stroud states he could live off a coconut a day – there are plenty of nutrients in one coconut. Add a fish and you’ve got a diet fit for a survivor.

So there you go… next time you find yourself stranded on a deserted island, no need to panic.
