Source text - Chinese 认识金丝燕
金丝燕属雨燕科，是侯鸟，比我们通常所见的燕子要小些，它们群栖生活在热带和温带海洋岛屿及沿岸地区。身长约九公分, 一只金丝燕的平均寿命是15至18岁。在繁殖的季节，金丝燕的口腔里能分泌出一种粘液腺，所分泌的唾液可在空气中凝成固体，是它们筑巢的主要材料。
Translation - English What is Swiftlets?
Swiftlet bird (scientifically named Collocalia, known as Walet in Indonesia) belongs to the Apodidae family, which is not the same as the common Swallow bird. These birds live in flocks along tropical and subtropical seaside. The average body length of a Swiftlet is 9 centimeters. The average life span of a Swiftlet is about 15 to 18 years. During the breeding season, the salivary glands of this species expand to produce the special inspissated saliva for binding twigs and other detritus together for building the nest, which is a shallow cup stuck to the cave wall.
English to Chinese: Getting to Know Bird's Nest General field: Marketing Detailed field: Livestock / Animal Husbandry
Source text - English Getting to Know Bird's Nest
Edible Bird's Nest is the dried glutinous secretion of the salivary glands from Southern Asia swiftlets. The saliva which acts as the nest cement is produced by a pair of sublingual glands located beneath the tongue of the swiftlet. This nest is usually found in caves near shoreline cliffs or under eaves of house and is hand-collected. Most bird's nest are produced in Southeast Asia countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam which have the most ideal climate and environment to provide the top quality Bird's Nest.
English to Chinese: Beneficial Effects of Bird's Nest
Source text - English Beneficial Effects of Bird's Nest
The investigations have provided good scientific evidence that supports the notion that the bird's nest can facilitate growth, moisture the skin, replenish strength and vital energy, enhance the metabolism in our human body, accelerate the recovery from disease and reinforce immunity.
In a publication in the Journal of Food Technology (Vol 8 Issue 3, 2010), Aswir Abd Rashed and W.M. Wan Nazaimoon wrote:
Major components of Edible Bird's Nest are mainly carbohydrates, glycoproteins and trace elements (Kathan and weeks, 1969; Nakagawa et al., 2007). Sialic acid (9%) is the major component of carbohydrate in Edible Bird's Nest (Colombo et al., 2003). Use of sialic acid may benefit the neurological and intellectual advantages in infants (Chau et al., 2003). As an excellent immune system moderator, sialic acid affects the flow resistance of mucus which in turn repels bacteria, viruses and other harmful microbes. Its related benefits include lowering of the LDL cholesterol preventing influenza A and B strains increasing fertility and controlling blood coagulation. The other major carbohydrates include 7.2% N-acetylactosamie (galNAc), 5.3% N-acetylgluco-samine (glcNAc), 16.9% galactose and 0.7% fucose (Dhawan and Kuhad, 2002). GalNAc is involved in the function of the synapses, the junction between nerve cells and deficiency can cause severe memory problems (Argueso et al., 2003). GlcNAc is an amino acid and a prominent precursor for glycosaminoglycans，a major component of joint cartilage.
Product Benefits：
Prof. Y.C. Kong from Hong Kong University reported that:
Bird's nest contain a "cell division inducing hormone" and an "epithelial growth factor" that can stimulate the growth and division of cells. Thereby enhancing tissue growth, cellular regeneration and cell-mediated immunity in humans.
Acccording to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), bird's nest:
• Boosts immunity system
• Maintains youthful and glowing complexion
• Speeds up recovery from illness
• Stimulates appetite
• Helps digestion
• Invigorates the lungs
• Reduces heatiness
The bird's nests are adaptable for any age group.
Translation - Chinese 燕窝的补益
一些科学研究证实了燕窝可促进生长，滋润肌肤，补充能量，增强人体的新陈代谢，加速疾病复苏和增强免疫力。
燕窝的主要成分是碳水化合物，糖蛋白和一些微量元素（(Kathan and weeks, 1969; Nakagawa et al., 2007)）。唾液酸（9％）是燕窝的中（Colombo et al., 2003）的主要碳水化合物。唾液酸有利于婴儿的神经系统和智力优势Chau et al., 2003）。它是一个优秀的免疫系统调节剂，唾液酸会对细菌，病毒和其它有害微生物产生阻力并进行排斥。他能降低低密度脂蛋白（坏胆固醇），预防流感A和B, 提高生育率和控制血液凝固。其他主要的碳水化合物包括N-acetylactosamie（半乳糖胺），5.3％N-acetylgluco samine（N-乙酰葡萄糖），16.9％的半乳糖和0.7％的海藻糖（Dhawan and Kuhad, 2002。半乳糖胺在神经细胞之间的交界处扮演着重要的角色，不足可能会导致严重的记忆问题（Argueso et al., 2003）。GlcNAc也是一种氨基酸和糖胺聚糖，一个关节软骨的主要组成部分。
香港大学教授Y.C. Kong的研究发现：
燕窝中含有“细胞分裂激素”和“表皮生长因子”，能刺激细胞生长和分裂。从而提高组织的生长，在人类细胞再生和细胞介导的免疫能力。
中国传统医药一般相信燕窝能：
• 增强免疫系统
• 保持青春和闪亮的肤色
• 加速疾病的恢复
• 刺激食欲
• 促进消化
• 补肺气
• 降火
燕窝适合各个年龄层的人士饮用。
