Based on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two, 5 x& e* P) @5 b$ R- N) V8 Q

  y. U' Q% J( s8 e0 s$ D# n: Z) I2) 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.
) a; R/ V4 A. j9 Y4 T  D0 i! K. U4 j! ~# q/ }
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.

A balance diet, and exercise regularly 5 K  X0 O8 P, \4 w$ J" f) x' y

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