If you were looking for a strange, yet ancient beauty secret, here it is: women in Asia have been consuming “bird's nest” for centuries, which, yes, is essentially the saliva of a small bird called a swiftlet . But stay with us… because it's not as strange as it seems when you look at the benefits.
Bird's nest is created by these birds, which knit it entirely with their saliva. What makes it so special is that it is edible and is widely used in Traditional Chinese Medicine as one of the most popular tonics . When dissolved in hot water, bird's nest takes on a gelatinous texture and is used to make sweet soups (tong sui) or nourishing tonics for the body and skin.
In addition to its traditional uses, bird's nest is now known worldwide as a beauty superfood . Its regular use is believed to help maintain youth, improve skin elasticity, and smooth wrinkles. New studies have shown that it is rich in epidermal growth factors, substances that promote the regeneration of skin cells and tissues.
But the benefits don't stop at the skin. Consuming bird's nest is also believed to aid in recovery from chronic illnesses , thanks to its pre-digested form of protein and nutrients. In traditional medicine, it is said to help balance energy, hydrate the lungs, and relieve symptoms such as night sweats, chronic coughs, bronchitis, fevers, and weakness.
Beyond all of this, bird's nest is rich in important minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium, aids in digestion and stimulates bowel movements, strengthening the immune system.
If you're wondering what the taste might be like... it's delicate and smooth, usually served with fruit or natural sweeteners like dates and goji berries. Many brands sell it today as a luxury product, ready-to-eat or canned in various forms, always with labels indicating origin and quality.
And to be honest, yes, “bird's nest” may seem strange at first. But when you consider that you're getting a natural collagen cocktail with centuries of experience behind it, it's probably a trend worth trying, especially for those who follow the latest wellness crazes.
