Based on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two, 5 g/ m) Z, [8 B" o0 p4 i' g$ H1 A
9 a7 H$ o9 ?" B  X: P; O2 q
1) BLADDER INFECTION? DRINK CRANBERRY JUICE!!!! : R; m( E$ q; S& w' _  c
High-acid cranberry juice controls harmful bacteria. 6 _8 d8 V3 X- k/ G( O: x
. L  F  D, H7 t- h( Y) ]
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.. T0 O9 u0 m! h* O: N2 [
% g7 t( E. p8 b. \- l. @8 k6 \
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.
