Using cocnut water as injection water

[Lychee]

I know many you out there might think I'm crazy but using water for IV is pretty fucking awesome. I done doing some reading and research on this and found out during the Vietnam Wars when doctors didn't have saline solution wasn't available they would use fresh coconut juice as substitute. I also asked my grandpa who was a doctor during the War and he said that whenever there were large casualties he would tell the nurses to collect as many fresh young coconuts as possible.

So just now I mixed 2 points of ice with 30cc fresh coconut juice, it has to the fresh juice from the young coconut you get at Asian shop not the brown hairy one.

And omg the coconut juice enhances the rush, its likes gives the rush an extra kick. The weird thing was that when the rush was wearing off abit I whacked up 50cc of just pure coconut juice and the rush just came back. I whacked up pure coconut juices like 3 times now and each time it just bought back the rush but the rush gets abit weaker each time I re-boosted on coconut juice.

From now on when I'm whacking up at home I will be using fresh coconut juice from now on, its just so awesome.

I am also not recommending people do it unless you understand what risks are involve, who knows I could be wrong and it could be very bad for me, I just simply wanna share my experience.

Abit of reading for those who are interested.

Also if anyone has tried using coconut juice as injection water let know how it was for you.


P.S Don't mind the coconut word error on title I only just realized when I posted it

I would be careful injecting anything plant based. Just because it can be used in an emergency does not mean it is safe to use over long term.

 

[PeacePipeChief]

Haha that's a good article and an awsome discovery if it's real and not placebo , I hope someone can ellaborate on the dangers of this though ?

 

[Verybuffed]

Coconut milk when drunk orally has a laxative effect. I wonder if it has the same effect IV?

For one it is most likely not sterile. I don't have time to read too much about this now, but I will see if I can find out why coconut water was used in these situations and also known/predicted risks.

 

[psycosynthesis]

Jesus. I wouldn't do this....

 

[spacejunk]

sounds like a really, really bad idea.
my understanding is that coconut milk was used in desperation in the vietnam war when wounded soldiers needed blood transfusions because it has a similar pH to human blood and there was no blood at hand.

it is rather miraculous that it worked, but i don't think that makes it advisable to use as IV solution when you have access to safer, more sterile things. i would imagine tap water would be a lot safer.

coconut milk may have some amazing qualities....but jeez, be careful.
i'd hate to think what sort of consequences intravenous injection of plant matter could have on your body. crazy bacterial infections...god knows what.

just don't forget that injecting drugs into your bloodstream bypasses the various organs that protect your body from various foreign matter. i'm not medically educated in any way, but this sort of thing just sounds like a recipe for endocarditis or some other horrific infection.
the kind of thing you could never really explain to a doctor.

as for the "extra kick" reported by the OP...perhaps there could be another reason for this, other than the liquid you dissolved the meth in.
higher quality gear than you are used to?
placebo?
fuck, it could be anything, but i really wouldn't advise people experiment with this kinda shit. no 'extra kick' is worth this kind of risk to your health/life. it might not seem like a big deal when you're healthy, but bizarre health problems aren't a lot of fun, and you could easily damage some vital organs.

no disrespect to lychee, but this thread is disturbing, you might want to rethink the way you use before you end up in a world of unnecessary pain.
even if it gets you higher...is it worth it?

 

[jaurk]

You are you asking to be infected.
Nature is unpredictable, who knows when the coconut water might be mutated.

 

[imprecate]

You can get fungal infections in the eyes from lemon juice...

It would be interesting to run a text to see what flora and fauna are in coconut juice.

 

[ayjay]

WOW this is really not a good idea.

Absolutely an infection risk - from local abscesses to more serious systemic infections like septicemia and endocarditis (infection of the heart valves).

As far as extra rush - could well be just a sugar rush. This is potentially dangerous but probably not too risky with the small amounts you are injecting. Back in the day when methadone syrup had sugar in it there was a risk of coma, fitting etc from injecting. Here's the wikipedia entry on hyperglycemia for a brief overview of risk.

And BTW - I believe you mean 0.3 - 0.5 cc per shot. 30cc = 30ml = 2 tablespoons. 50ml is half a standard wine glass. I highly doubt you are injecting that much. 30 lines is 0.3ml or a bit under 1/3 of a 1ml fit.

If you really must do this you should consider using a 0.2um filter - this will remove bacteria and fungal spores.

 

[GABAking]

Hmm pretty interesting, but as people said, you shouldn't be doing this unless you're prophylactically taking mad antibiotics and antifungals, which I'm sure you're not. Doctors used this in times of desperation. If a patient is going to die on you unless you intervene immediately, the risk of infection isn't as important (I'd rather be alive with an infection than dead...heh). In times of good health, the risk:benefit ratio is completely shot. There's no benefit to doing this.

I wouldn't be surprised if coconut water was sterile but that would be whole coconuts straight from the palm. The ones in the supermarket or fruit shop might have had there shells/husks compromised. Not might have, a lot probably have. Therefore are no longer sterile. Even if they look intact I wouldn't risk it. LOL even if it was sterilised via irradiation I wouldn't shoot it.

Another thing is that yes they used it in the Vietnam war but maybe the docs prepared it a bit first, maybe they filtered it, maybe they...who knows.

Oh and for safeties sake I wanted to back up what space junk said about the risk of nasty infections in vital organs.

 

[headdah]

Is this a prank or what....

I'm hoping this is some elaborate prank/joke by someone, cuz if this is for real, man. Are ppl really this dumb?

yes it might of worked in the vietnam war
but
modern medication has come a LONGGGGGG way
since the days of viet congs and charlies.....

so ppl, please, have some sense when you are reading this and think omfg i'ma go down to my local coles/woolies and get me self a fresh young coconutz...

 

[the_ketaman]

Why would you choose to do this when bacteriostatic water is readily available and surely cheaper!?! I highly advise using pharm grade water over coconut water, even tap water if you must. There would surely be instanced where you'd get "floaties" in the coconut water and injecting any kind of plant material is very, VERY bad news.

I think this thread should be closed after a mod elaborates on how bad of an idea this really is. Sorry to Lychee im not saying your stupid or that people didnt actually do this in the war. Its actually quite interesting and id certainly never heard of this being done before but people really should know that this shouldnt be done and why it shouldnt be done. People are going to think that this might be a good way to get an extra rush when its really not a good idea at all, FULLSTOP!

Thanks for sharing though Lychee. Just dont do this anymore please

 

[Lychee]

Yes yes, I am fully aware of all the dangers and risks involves which is why I did not recommend anyone do it. Since trying it for the first time last week me and 2 other mates have tested the effects of coconut water 3 more times and I have come to the conclusion that it definitely gives a stronger rush.

Those 3 other times I also tested with the same gear, same amount and also using normal injection waters to compare the differences. When I mixed with coconut water it gives quite a significant boost and the rush hit me hard especially in the head, with using normal water the rush doesn't hit the head as much. Me and my 2 other mates also felt a strong head rush when mixing with coconut water.

I have also found an interesting study on CLINICAL EXPERIENCE IN INTRAVENOUS ADMINISTRATION OF COCONUT WATER in which I will add to my first post if anyone is interested in reading.

 

[Captain Brewster]

Sounds dodgy ass.

And as for the rush, if I haven't been drinking enough water through the day, and I scull down a big coconut juice, I get an electrolyte buzz, lol.

Honestly how stupid and immature can some drug users be? I'm not going to pussy foot around here, OP you ARE an idiot. You know those case studies you read about where you read about some brainless moron who injected something stupid and spent ages in hospital and nearly died, you are going to end up one of these morons, i can see it a mile off mate.

If you actually did this then you surely aren't mature enough to be pumping drugs into your veins. I mean can you imagine explaining to the doctor why you're presenting at his office, "umm well, instead of just using perfectly sterile saline that i can get FREE from the exchange, i chose to go BUY some bloody coconuts from the super market and used the water, without any micron filtration mind you, to mix up my methamphetamine shot, i thought this would be a good idea because i read how doctors used it in DESPERATION(maybe go look up the meaning of this word OP) for IV fluid in the Vietnam war."

Honestly, you heard about doctors using it during hard times of scarcity during wartime situations, and some how your brain connects that up with the great idea to shoot it up yourself. Dont you realise what could be in that water? Dont you understand you are presenting it directly into your bloodstream, you could end up with any number of life threatening conditions or if you're lucky some illness that will cause you alot of unnecessary pain.

You can get an accurate picture of someone maturity level when they tell you a story like the one the OP told us, really it makes your rush come back? I call placebo, you understand what the methamp rush actually is? lol coconut water cannot "bring back the rush", you already have the meth racing through your bloodstream lol, you cant introduce it again and "bring the rush back".

I'm sorry but i'm not going to be soft on this, this is one of THE dumbest thing's ive read on bluelight in a long time and i hope we dont have too many other stupid iv users who would think something this stupid could be a good idea. I mean honestly OP, you can get perfectly good saline for free yet you are PAYING for some unsterilized organic water from a bloody supermarket acquired coconut, surely i'm not the only one who thinks the OP is abit of a moron?

 

[8L4YN3]

OP i decided to google 'CLINICAL EXPERIENCE IN INTRAVENOUS ADMINISTRATION OF COCONUT WATER' and downloaded a PDF. Looks quite outdated. Funny thing though, i'm reading about some experiments they ran in a few hospitals, you do realise they were running the water through an autoclave first lol, plus filtering it with i assume a not super fine membrane before they did this, then it had penicillin added to it.

Not exactly what you are doing OP, although i will be a tiny bit less harsh on you because i did read fresh coconut water is sterile.

Still though, bloody hell just grab some vials of saline at the exchange when you get your fits man lol. Fuck coconuts.

 

[Captain Brewster]

^ amen to that champ.

 

[Mr Blonde]

I think this thread should be closed after a mod elaborates on how bad of an idea this really is.

I'm not going to close this for the mean time as it seems everyone here has told the OP how bad an idea this is and why it should not be done.

Lychee, any extra effects you are experiencing are probably either due to the sugar or due to placebo, maybe a mixture of both. You are risking your health with this practice, and I hope you reconsider it as you could do yourself serious harm from bacterial infections.

I wouldn't be surprised if coconut water was sterile

I would be suprised if it was sterile.
