Is dessicated coconut good or bad for you?

I'm trying to work out if it's one of my 5-a-day.. but I'm worried it might be too carby.

A Coconut is actually part of a fruit, but nutritionally it's classified as a nut because of how it's usually eaten, and also because it contains similar nutrients to nuts. So it doesn't count towards your fruit and vegetable portions
