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.
% c1 y7 t# b! H: U  \5 C# G  R5 g+ B$ l) x: \$ J
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.
' P: h# n) o: g: F# n

For example, vitamin E is good to you. But overdoing it might lead to Vitamin E poisoning. : [, c. p1 _# E  R7 z
