I usually drink young coconut water, with only small amount of meat, and the maximum is only one fruit per day. I drink it in the afternoon to help me to relax. As it is known that coconut water contains kalium which help to relax the muscles, so it is good to drink it when at rest. The next morning I will wake up with fresh body without muscle stiffness. But I dont drink coconut water at night before sleep, to avoid too much going to bathroom for pee, and it will interrupt my sleeping.
