In recent times, the most interesting discovery by researchers in Hong Kong is that the glycoproteins in Bird Nest Soups contains elements of mitogenic stimulation factor and epidermic growth factor (“EGF”) which can stimulate cell growth and reproduction and strengthen the immune system. As such, it has excellent potential for restoring fine complexion and youthfulness, thus slowing down the ageing process.
In addition, Bird Nest Soups have also been found to contain antioxidants which help increase body immunity and lower the risk of cancer, heart disease, macular degeneration and diabetes.

Health Benefits of Consuming Bird Nest Soup |
Cave Nest vs House Nest - Its Time To Know The Difference
Bird Nest Soups are in demand not just locally but the world over, with more
and more people recognising the nutritional benefits of this wondrous delicacy
from nature. The White-nest Swiftlet (Aerodamus fuciphagus) and Black-nest
Swiftlet (Aerodamus maximus) are the two main producers of edible Bird Nest
Soups. Nests made by White-nest Swiftlets comprise 70-80% salivary excretion
and 20-30% feathers/ impurities, whilst the reverse is true for Black-nest
Swiftlets, i.e. 20- 30% salivary excretion and 70-80% feathers/impurities.Historically, Bird Nest Soups have been typically harvested from limestone caves such as Gomantong and Niah. These are commonly known as cave nests. Cave nests tend to contain higher levels of impurities compared to house nests as they are exposed to the influence of external environment surroundings. Harvesting cave nests is also a high-risk profession as workers have to climb to dangerous heights and hang precariously from vertical cave walls while collecting the prized nests.
“House nests contains lesser amounts of impurities, dirt, feathers and the shapes and quality produced tend to be more consistent compared to those harvested from caves.”
House nests, on the other hand, present a more hygienic way of producing Bird Nest Soups. To cater to the ever-growing demand of this delicacy, many old buildings, usually located away from residential areas, have been converted into swiftlet farm houses to increase the nesting area for swiftlets. Nowadays, many swiftlet farms are specifically-designed buildings in well-forested surroundings and utilise modern techniques to mimic the natural cave habitat of swiftlets, such as dark interiors with the optimum temperature and humidity. The calling sounds used in swiftlet houses are also designed to attract only White-nest swiftlets, which produce cleaner nests. The swiftlets are free to enter and leave the structure anytime to seek for food and water.
Therefore, they are feeding naturally on insects and fruits just as cave swiftlets do. The harvesting process is also much safer as workers are also able to collect Bird Nest Soup conveniently from the nesting surfaces which are typically located no more than 10 feet from the ground.
Using a cleaner, more controlled environment yet just as natural, house nests are becoming a more obvious choice for consumers as these nests contain lesser amounts of impurities, dirt, feathers and the shape and quality produced tend to be more consistent as compared to those harvested from caves.

Quality Food for Your Choice
While you are going to
shop for grocery, have you paid attention to the prices of all food, including
the ones that you don’t buy? I bet most of you do that.
Recent studies show that “the price of more healthy foods was consistently
greater than that of less healthy foods over the period 2002–2012, and that the
absolute price gap between healthy and less healthy foods has grown over this
period.” Other research from University of Washington tells that “Not only are
the empty calories cheaper, but the healthy foods are becoming more and more
expensive. Vegetables and fruits are rapidly becoming luxury goods.”We can mostly see at the supermarket that, the more minimally-processed foods, the higher their prices are, either they are organic, GMO-free, sustainable, etc. When we are going to the instant and junk food sections, the prices of most of the things are usually cheaper, either it’s the nugget, processed foods, refined grains, fish sticks, etc.
Why does Bird Nest Soup become luxury food?
By these studies and observations, can we conclude that the higher the price
of the food, the healthier it is? Not always, but mostly yes. We can call it
luxury foods. Still, we have to see carefully about the food ingredients and
nutrients that usually stated on the packaging. Extra time to compare once is
worth-it to eat better food and save extra money if in facts we can get cheaper
food with the same ingredients and nutrients.Bird Nest Soup is one of the healthiest and luxury foods, as the nutrients and benefits for health have been undoubtedly proven. It is safe to be consumed by men, women, children, pregnant women, moms who are breastfeeding, for baby, and for the elderly.
