All I know is that coconut water has a lot of potassium, so it's good for you that way. I don't drink it very often because it's very expensive here in the states.

So, I wasn't the only one that was lied to, after all?! 
Though grown enough to understand the falsity of this claim, I still steer clear of coconut water. And, no, it neither makes one more intelligent nor dull(er).

These parents ehn!

Lol.
My sentiments exactly. I have never summoned enough courage to taste the stuff!

Coconut water makes peolpe dull? I’d quickly classify this under the ‘Eating- garri-and-mango-at-the-same-time-results-in-death’ category. All that hogwash that was fed to us when we were kids by cunning adults for their own purposes.

funny thing is a lot of adult still believe in these myths.

@ you make roll on the ground ooo. in fact u wan kill me with this ur thread. i can remember a lot of donts then,

1. dont seat at the door post and eat, because u wont be full.(just not to obsruct movt)
2. dont eat directly frm the pot, cos hunger will soon wire u(just not to mess up d pot)
3. when fetching water from local drinking water pot,dont look inside, if u do u will see a masqurade(meanwhile d masqurade is going to be ur own image o, this is just to ensure d water is kept clean) etc

Such tales will no longer work on the current generation of youngsters. They were for a time when people had simpler minds.

hahahaha we plenty ooo, even now i dey run for coconut completly, chai those cunning elders
