Recent scientific research on the nest of edible birds (EBN) revealed that it contained rich amino acids and rich antioxidants. The two essential elements help to create new cells and neutralize the free radicals in our body.

Antioxidants

The bird's nest is rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants are substances or nutrients that can prevent or slow down the oxidative damage to our body. Health problems like heart disease, muscle degeneration, diabetes, cancer etc. All of them are contributed by oxidative damage. Antioxidants can also be an immune defense, reducing the risk of cancer and infection.

Amino acids

The bird's nest contains amino acids such as leucine, lysine, glycine, glutamine, tyrosine, arginine, cysteine, histidine, tryptophan, etc. Amino acids are best described as the building blocks from which the protein is made.

Bird nests are expensive and nutritious. Therefore, it is important to distinguish the nest from the real bird (The authenticity of the bird's nest). There are many breeders on the market who increase the weight of the bird's nest by adding additives such as white mushrooms, gelatin and synthetic gum or fur.

Appearance: - Good and real nests consist of two main types of filaments. The outer layer has larger and larger filaments, while the inner part has finer and shorter filaments.

Boiling: - When boiled twice for one hour, the internal filaments of the bird's nest become soluble in water. The outer filaments contain mainly minerals, are less soluble, but give the bird's nest its characteristic taste and its fibrous appearance.

Odor: During the double boiling point a fine odor of scent is produced near the albumin.

Bird's nests contain glycoprotein. This particular glycoprotein has a mitogenic effect called epidermal growth factor (EGF), which can stimulate cell growth. The tonic of bird nests is believed to improve skin tone, reduce aging and prevent the mutation of cancer cells.
