In recent years, there have been many reports about precocious puberty in children. Some children have eaten bird's nest. Some people attribute the cause of precocious puberty to eating bird's nest, and then it is said that bird's nest hormones cause precocious puberty. This is irresponsible to consumers. misleading.
In fact, many foods in daily life contain hormones, including the most common eggs, milk, grains, chicken, soybeans, etc. The content of progesterone and estrogen in bird's nest can only be said to be very small, and there is no significant difference compared with eggs, milk, meat and other foods.
According to research data, compared with eating 5 grams of bird's nest every day, the content of progesterone from bird's nest is much lower than that of eggs, and the content of estradiol is similar to that of eggs. What's more, we have to eat all kinds of meat, grains, milk and other foods every day. The total hormone content from these foods is much higher than eating a few grams of bird's nest, and the human body only takes a large amount of estrogen or estrogen-like substances from the outside world. A few grams of bird's nest is not enough to have any effect, and there is no evidence that endogenous estrogen and progesterone in food will cause obvious harm to the human body. Therefore, scientists generally believe that endogenous hormones are harmful to the human body. is safe.
It is generally recommended that adults eat 3-5 grams of bird's nest every day or every other day, but children's absorption capacity is more limited, and only 2-3 grams is required. Worry about overnutrition, let alone cause precocious puberty.
