Philosophy 

n the course of his 18 years of experience as a paediatrician and sports physician, Dr. Martins has often been asked, and still is, as to which beverage, other than water or breast milk, would be an ideal and healthy food complement. His patients are mainly interested with an organic natural beverage, on the one hand free of additives and on the other hand rich in minerals and organic vitamins, thus appropriate both for children and athletes.

Five years of research finally led Dr. Martins to the green coconut.

Dr. Martins explains: "Coconut water is one of the purest and healthiest drinks provided by nature. Inhabitants of tropical regions have been enjoying this extraordinary drink for many centuries. They ingest it for the purpose of refreshment, revitalisation, re-hydration, nourishment and in order to maintain proper food and fluids levels in their bodies. And there are still much more medicinal qualities to be derived from coconut water. I fully endorse it, without any qualms."

r. Martins' foods are bio-ethic products

Dr. Martins places a great emphasis on sustainable production - from the cultivation of organic coconuts to environmentally friendly procedures. The high quality of the raw material is ensured through the organic growers' fair-pricing and purchasing guarantee. A patent issued by the FAO has enabled the processing procedure of the green coconut. The pertinent technologies were further developed by the UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), the enterprise Lenzing AG and Dr. Martins. Yet another attribute is the consumer friendly and modern carton packaging, with its positive environmental performance (rated as "ecologically beneficial" by the national environment authority in the 2003 environment report).
