Scientific studies confirm that edible bird’s nest is rich in bioactive compounds that promote skin health, immunity, and overall wellness. Research highlights that bird’s nest contains sialic acid, glycoproteins, amino acids, and epidermal growth factor (EGF), which aid in cell regeneration, anti-aging, and collagen production.
A study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology found that bird’s nest enhances immune function by stimulating B-cell activity, improving resistance to infections. Another study suggests that sialic acid in bird’s nest supports brain function, potentially aiding in memory enhancement and cognitive health.
Additionally, research in nutritional science indicates that bird’s nest has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, making it beneficial for respiratory health, post-illness recovery, and gut health. These findings support the long-standing use of bird’s nest as a functional food with medicinal benefits.
