Abstract

Compositions and methods for the treatment of asthma may be prepared by drilling a hole in a coconut, adding about 1/4 pound of brown sugar (piloncillo) to an inside of the coconut, plugging the hole, wrapping the coconut in plastic, and allowing the coconut water and its contents to ferment 12 inches underground for 40 days. The resulting composition may have anti-inflammatory properties that can treat inflammation and asthma in users.
