The Acai berry has gotten a lot of attention in recent years thanks to its powerful concentration of antioxidants and other things useful to the human body. It has gotten to the point that some marketers of Acai products would have you believe that it can cure every ailment you ever suffer from. You're smart enough not to fall for that, but are you smart enough to figure out if bird nest soup is the cure for all your ailments?

Bird nest soup is an alternative medicine endorsed by traditional Chinese medicine. It comes from a small nest from the Swiflet bird which breeds and nests in Asia. These nests are actually produced by the birds and then spat out. The sticky liquid turns into a solid form once met with air and that is how the nests are formed.

Just like the Acai berry, you can find a variety of retailers selling bird-nest products today. Some are very realistic about what these products can do for the human body, but others may take it further by claiming it can cure a long list of human health problems.

Here is a short list of some common claims of what bird-nest can do for the human body:

* Aids digestion
* Regenerates cells and tissue
* Promotes cell division
* Boosts immune system
* Reduces blood pressure
* Prevents cancer
* Protects the heart
* Helps cells grow
* Improves blood flow through the body
* Increases energy
* Strengthens & nourishes pregnant women
* Aids in post natal recovery for new mothers
* Protects the kidneys
* Strengthens the lungs

You can probably find other health benefits being claimed by some manufacturers and marketers for bird nest products. This is just like all of the claims that you see circulating about the tiny Acai berry which comes from the Amazonian forest. It seems many people think everything wrong with the human body can be cured with these alternative nutritional supplements.

So, what's the truth about bird nest products? Are they the real fountain of youth or are all of these claims about their benefits genuine?

Not every claim made by a manufacturer or marketer is going to be true. The good news is there are a lot of benefits to be gained from taking pure bird nest that has been appropriately cleaned and processed. The key here is in finding pure bird nest products that give you the real thing. The bird news needs to be genuinely from Swiflet nests in Asia and they have to be collected an processed so the valuable nutrients inside them aren't lost.

Bird nest could be considered the Acai berry of traditional Chinese medicine because of the many bold claims of its benefits. Yet, many of the claims about bird nest are completely true. Believers in traditional Chinese medicine have been using the nest of the Swiflets for many years to nourish and protect pregnant women and new mothers. It is believed to give the pregnant women strength while nourishing their growing babies for a healthy birth.

After birth, traditional Chinese medicine believes a woman's immune system is boosted by the swiflet's nest.

There is also legitimacy to many of the other claims listed above. This means most people can take real bird nest products and benefit from advanced overall health.
