No Voon, birds nest soup (or any other soup for that matter)  will not improve your immune function.

Voon,

I'm familiar with birds nest soup. I understand that it's eaten as both a food and for medicinal purposes. Nevertheless there is no evidence to suggest that it will have any positive impact on your immune function. There's no evidence that it will have a negative effect either.
