Word Origin and History for ounce Expand. n. unit of weight, early 14c., from Old French once, unce, a measure of weight or time (12c.), from Latin uncia one-twelfth part (of a pound, foot, etc.), from Latin unus one (see one). The Latin word had been adopted in Old English as ynce (see inch).
A glass of coconut water can instantly cheer you up on a warm sunny day. But coconut water is much more than a way to escape the heat as it has many health benefits. You may try to ease acidity with antacids then but sipping some coconut water can help resolve the discomfort that comes with acidity in a jiffy.
(Note that the tocotrienols degrade during cooking so this benefit is lost if you use coconut oil for cooking.) In addition, it is low in omega-6 fatty acids (less than 2%), which reduces the formation of arachidonic acid, a pro-inflammatory compound.
