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.
8 W; f# M& n. t8 C' g8 ]& J, E. B( R3 K6 H4 A, O- e" h2 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.

Therefore, eat a balance diet (eat everything in moderate), and exercise regularly. These are the most important factors for good health.
