Bird's nest is a nest built by swiftlets from their saliva, which is then collected, processed to remove feathers and impurities. Since ancient times, it has been a valuable food, used by emperors as a precious ingredient for beauty and wellness.
In traditional Chinese medicine, bird's nest is believed to nourish Yin and moisten dryness, replenish qi and invigorate the middle burner, and benefit the stomach and spleen. According to "Ben Cao Gang Mu Shi Yi" (Compendium of Materia Medica Supplement), bird's nest is "sweet, bland, and neutral in taste, greatly nourishing lung Yin. It supplements while cleansing, making it a sacred medicine for treating deficiency, consumption, and emaciation."
