Scientific Research about Swallow Bird Nest
Even a scientific research about yen-ou had not been done comprehensively but surely the bioactive compound is available inside which have a role to give a refresher effect. That compound give refresher effect. Mystery of this bioactive compound, just opened with technology identify modernly, like HPLC ( High Performance Liquid Chromatography) and GC-MS ( Gaz Chromatograph Mass Spectrophotometry).
Protein in form of glikoprotein represent biggest content which there are in yen-ou besides carbohydrate, water and fat. It reaches up to 50%. In the human body, protein takes a role as constructor substances, form cells and new network actively during metabolism. Animal protein has more solid nutrition because the compound tying more complex than vegetation protein. Even one of its generation compound – azitothymidine – have been checked can fight against AIDS.
Above all of them, swallow nest is the source of acid of amino completely. Noticed is about 17 acid of amino esensial, semi esensial and non esensial are available inside of this nest. One of them is nowadays developed by researchers in west as opponent of cancer or stroke.
One of the expert and lecture in Faculty of Forestry of IPB found the existence of specific items in swallow nest having an influence with health of human being. That specific items is analysed as ODA ( 9-octadeceonic acid) and HAD (hexadeceonic acid), having the character to strengthen of human body because it can stimulate enzyme to work.
Result of HAD activity quicken cycle of kreb, so that produce body metabolism 3 – 5 times. Minerals of swallow nest do not fail efficacious to support body activity. There are 6 minerals which have been known, like calcium, iron, phosphorus, Potassium and of Natrium. In body, calcium share for the forming of bone.
