Eu Yan Sang Imperial Golden Bird's Nest Reduced Sugar Semi-Concentrated 100% Natural - 150G

Description

High quality edible bird's nests were introduced into China only 450 years ago in the Ming Dynasty. Historical evidence indicated that it was Admiral Cheng-Ho that brought the precious nests from Southeast Asia to the Chinese emperor. These precious clumps of dried saliva were barter traded with the Tang ceramics. Bird's nest has been recognized as a royal food with the ability to nourish the yin, and moisten lungs. The most precious nutrients of the bird's nest are the varieties of glycol-proteins available within. They constitute about 80% of the edible portion. It is interesting to note that the modern research are verifying the TCM traditional claims. For example, it has always been said that bird's nest is good for the skin. In the 1990's, researchers successfully isolated a unique substance in bird's nest named the epidermal growth factor (EGF). EGF is responsible for skin and tissue repair and full potential of this substance is still being investigated.
