"Travel the whole world, no one is as good as Mother; bear life's burdens, no one suffers as much as Father" – Anonymous
Parents are always the ones who shelter and protect us and are ready to sacrifice for their children. The love our parents give us is vast and boundless. As adults, you are busy with the worries of making a living, and the words "I love you, Mom and Dad!" seem to be said less and less. The Vu Lan festival is the occasion for children to express gratitude and love to the parents who gave birth to and raised them.
Bird's Nest – A gift of love that says what words cannot, for your parents
The greatest joy of parents is seeing their children grow up, live happily and always care for the family. So receiving a card or a rose from a beloved child, or simply gathering for a meal on Vu Lan day, is enough to make parents happy. In particular, once past the age of 50, parents' greatest wish is to have enough health to gather with their children and grandchildren and enjoy a healthy old age.
Why bird's nest is a meaningful gift for Vu Lan
Not only the foremost of the "eight treasures", bird's nest is also regarded as a golden food for the health of older people. What is more precious than the gift of health? Join Yến Sào Sài Gòn in learning about the benefits of bird's nest for older people!
Calcium supplementation
Bird's nest contains a fairly high amount of calcium. It helps supplement calcium for the elderly and reduces the risk of conditions caused by osteoporosis. It helps support stronger bones.
Good for the digestive system – nutrients are absorbed easily
Eating bird's nest makes older people feel more appetite for their food. At the same time, bird's nest has a light, cooling taste that is very easy to eat and stimulates the elderly's sense of taste. In addition, bird's nest helps the stomach digest and absorb nutrients more easily.
Good for the blood
Bird's nest helps boost the production of red blood cells and blood, giving a rosy complexion and a healthy body. However, here is a small note for older people with high blood pressure: they need to consult a doctor before using bird's nest.
Anti-ageing
In old age, many wrinkles and age spots appear on the skin. Bird's nest contains collagen, an antioxidant that helps fight skin ageing. It makes the elderly look more youthful and limits wrinkling of the skin.
Good for the kidneys
Declining kidney function is one of the reasons older people feel tired, due to frequent urination and the build-up of harmful substances. Eating bird's nest helps strengthen kidney function and helps the kidneys excrete and filter blood more effectively.
Helps you fall asleep easily and sleep better
In old age, eating and sleeping become harder. Eating bird's nest before bed makes older people feel they sleep better than before. Supporting older people's sleep is truly a wonderful benefit of bird's nest.
A few notes when preparing and choosing bird's nest as a gift for your parents
For older people with diabetes, we should steam the bird's nest plain without adding sugar, or cook it into porridge to improve the appetite.
In addition, we can cook bird's nest dessert, or make stews and soups with bird's nest to benefit the health of older people.
In particular, you need to buy quality bird's nest to protect health and supplement nutrition without harming older people. There are many kinds of counterfeit bird's nest on the market whose ingredients may contain toxic substances. Those toxic substances may have harmful effects on older people's health.
