Frequently Asked Questions
What is Nestvita, and what makes it different from other brands?
Nestvita specializes in premium, Grade-A edible bird’s nests, sourced directly from sustainable swiftlet houses in pristine Southeast Asia environments. What sets us apart is our commitment to zero additives, zero bleaching, and zero artificial coloring. Our strict process ensures the nest retains its maximum natural nutritional content (sialic acid, glycoproteins) and authentic texture, while being meticulously cleaned for your safety and convenience.
What are the main health benefits of consuming Nestvita bird's nest?

What is the best way to prepare and consume Nestvita bird's nest?
For our cleaned, ready-to-cook nests:
- Soak: Soak the nest in clean, filtered water for 4-6 hours until fully softened and expanded.
- Stew: Place the softened strands in a double-boiler or stewing pot with fresh water. Stew gently for 20-45 minutes. Do not boil vigorously, as this will destroy nutrients and dissolve the nest.
- Sweeten: Add rock sugar, honey, or a natural sweetener of your choice only in the last 5-10 minutes of stewing.
Consume on an empty stomach for best absorption,2-3 times a week.
Who can consume Nestvita bird's nest? Are there any contra-indications?
Nestvita is a natural food suitable for adults, the elderly, and children (typically above 1 year old). It is highly popular among pregnant women and new mothers for postnatal recovery. However, we advise the following:
- Consult a doctor if you have a history of severe allergies, are on specific medication, or have a rare condition like “bird’s nest protein allergy.”
- Due to its cooling property in TCM, some recommend avoiding it when one has a severe cold or flu with phlegm.
How should I store my Nestvita bird's nest?
- Unopened & Dry: Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and strong odors.
- Opened Package: Seal tightly and consider transferring to an airtight container.
- After Soaking/Stewing: Consume immediately. Leftovers can be kept in a sealed glass container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Re-steam gently; do not microwave.
Sealed Vacuum Pack: However, our vacuum-packed EBN in proper storage retain its quality for at least 2-years.
What is the recommended serving size and consumption frequency?
Does Nestvita offer ready-to-drink (RTD) or instant products?
No, not yet. But new innovative RTD birdnest-curated products is in our future plan.
Why is edible bird's nest so expensive?
The premium cost reflects the entire value chain:
· Rarity & Harvesting: Nests are hand-harvested from high, difficult-to-reach locations in limited geographic regions.
· Labor-Intensive Processing: Our nests are hand-cleaned by skilled workers to remove impurities without damaging the delicate strands—a process that takes hours per nest.
· Quality Assurance: Our multi-step safety and authenticity testing adds significant cost but is non-negotiable for us.
· Nutritional Value: It is a precious, nutrient-dense natural resource.
