Based on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two, ( s5 L+ c4 Y: i( I% P* n

% X3 d3 L: M0 ~4 ]5 m0 g* t2) 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.
. p( {5 x8 {6 ~6 }4 U; n0 D3 G4 M/ s3 Y4 W7 W3 V$ W# F
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.
