- j0 j- a' U0 A* Y6 a, C* a
1) BLADDER INFECTION? DRINK CRANBERRY JUICE!!!! ' d6 d5 t% j# J* F5 F. t2 M
High-acid cranberry juice controls harmful bacteria.

2) Fish has omega-3 fatty acids, and are known to be beneficial to us in various ways. The problem is that our body does not make omega-3 fatty acids, and we need to consume it from fish.- v$ |8 B1 Q8 s. x+ G" c
0 X2 J4 S) w( }' K* @& Q& B
Many research had been done on omega-3 fatty acids. In Canada, biotechnology enabled scientists to incorporate omega-3 fatty acids in eggs. It is currently being sold at supermarkets here. As a result, consumers can obtain it from a non-fish source. More new products with omega-3 fatty acids are expected in the near future.

However, there's one thing that we should always keep in mind. % N+ u2 w& x3 b* q

/ N& W# [& ~( K# J0 ]  XA balance diet, and exercise regularly 4 u4 V% R' H- K% e- S5 i% l+ n1 T! [

; s( L# U' v% E& A! s  H: [  Y7 t4 p* g* c  T, V7 m3 ?$ R2 i* r
For example, vitamin E is good to you. But overdoing it might lead to Vitamin E poisoning. . q! o5 f/ V( j  M1 y% L. I  t

  m' F5 t, G8 _0 `' N8 F7 ]: fTherefore, eat a balance diet (eat everything in moderate), and exercise regularly. These are the most important factors for good health.
