Bird’s nests are prized for their rich content of sialic acid, a vital nutritional component.

Sialic acid, originally isolated from submandibular gland mucin, is a naturally occurring carbohydrate found widely across various organisms, including animals, plants, and microorganisms. It is particularly abundant in breast milk, with lesser amounts found in sources such as cow’s milk, eggs, and cheese. Bird’s nests boast an impressive sialic acid content ranging from 7% to 15%, surpassing that of other natural products.

Sialic acid plays a crucial role in the development and function of the brain and nervous system. Research suggests that regular supplementation of adequate sialic acid during pregnancy helps maintain optimal levels in both the mother and the developing fetus, promoting healthy brain development. Additionally, sialic acid exhibits protective and stabilizing effects on nerve cells. As the body ages, there is a natural decline in sialic acid levels, which can contribute to brain tissue atrophy and diminished cognitive function. Certain neurological conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease and schizophrenia, are associated with reduced sialic acid levels in the bloodstream or brain. Adequate intake of sialic acid can support the metabolic activity of nerve cells, potentially mitigating age-related cognitive decline and neurological disorders.

However, the process of preparing bird's nest—from soaking and cleaning to careful cooking—takes a whole day. SYSAYS has transformed the benefits of sialic acid into a comprehensive product solution that aligns with the pace of modern life, allowing consumers to easily enjoy this care and attention even in their busy schedules.



燕窩因其豐富的唾液酸含量而備受推崇，這是一種重要的營養成分。

唾液酸最初從下頜腺黏蛋白中分離出來，是一種天然存在的碳水化合物，廣泛分佈於包括動物、植物和微生物在內的各種生物中。它在母乳中尤其豐富，較少量存在於牛奶、雞蛋和乳酪等食物中。燕窩的唾液酸含量驚人，約佔7%至15%，遠超其他天然產品。

唾液酸在大腦和神經系統的發展及功能中扮演著至關重要的角色。研究表明，懷孕期間適量補充唾液酸有助於維持母親和胎兒的最佳唾液酸水平，促進健康的大腦發育。此外，唾液酸對神經細胞具有保護和穩定作用。隨著年齡增長，體內唾液酸水平自然下降，這可能導致大腦組織萎縮和認知功能下降。一些神經系統疾病，如阿茲海默症和精神分裂症，與血液或大腦中的唾液酸水平下降有關。充足的唾液酸攝取可以支持神經細胞的新陳代謝活動，從而可能減緩與年齡相關的認知衰退和神經疾病的風險。

然而，燕窩從浸泡、去雜到精心燉煮，需耗費一整天的時間。萱顏說基於唾液酸的這些益處，將其轉化為符合現代生活節奏的全方位產品方案，讓消費者在忙碌中也能輕鬆享受這份精心與呵護。
