No it doesn't. The coconut itself is like a first-aid drug.
..it rehydrates the body
..it reduces blood pressure
..and it is useful for patients, as it allows the drugs to by absorbed easily.

the only side effect (which is due to excessive consumption) is that it causes diarrhea to some people.

George arrived home later that night,although disappointed, but with a solemn promise in his heart, never to lose hope. Afterall, "the lord closes a door and somewhere else opens a window"

He had really been angered that day. having gotten there, full dressed and ready for the interview he was told someone else had already got the job. ***

***Having taken his time to iron his stripe blue shirt, trimmed his beards, and put on a charming smile on his square shaped face, all his hopes were dashed like vapor when he heard the shocker, that someone else had already gotten the job.*

I briefly worked on the first paragraph, and edited the second one.

Didn't want to derail your nice thread, so I posted it here.

Nice work tho, interesting storyline so far.
