There are a variety of products and byproducts that you can get from a coconut. First, when you cut open a coconut, in the center is coconut water. The younger the coconut, the more waters will be in the center (optimal at around 7-9 months). Coconut water is one of the best beverages one can put in his/her body (see www.TRUCOCO.com for information on coconut water). As a coconut ages, the white part on the inside (this is called the flesh, or meat of the the coconut) grows and the amount of water typically decreases. The white part of the coconut is used to make a variety of products, such as coconut milk, coconut oil and coconut chips. All coconut products have a great amount of health benefits. Check out this article by a Dr. Mercola who has done a bunch of work on coconuts: http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2011/11/27/coconut-water-ultimate-rehydrator.aspx

For the shells. they are mostly discarded, however, there are a variety of uses of the shells as well, even for furniture.

Coconut meat is the white-ish stuff inside the ripe coconut. Coconuts have an outer husk, a shell, and meat when mature. When they are still immature the insides are liquid (coconut milk) and as they mature, the coconut milk starts to turn into the coconut "meat" or "flesh". It is being used, in a sense, like the term walnut "meat" referring to the edible part of the nut (coincidentally also in a shell).
