Based on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two, ) ~, p2 s8 z3 _' b/ I
6 e  m+ w) _- L4 o" X
1) BLADDER INFECTION? DRINK CRANBERRY JUICE!!!!
5 o! {! n. g1 M/ d$ `6 CHigh-acid cranberry juice controls harmful bacteria. : F4 ^/ ^2 E# S9 T6 y  _5 ]9 m

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.
9 k8 _! y4 V6 Y6 I# g& A& M7 S3 J9 S0 Q! C3 \' [" L9 D
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. - H9 O: F5 [) @* Q# E8 a# W

A balance diet, and exercise regularly

For example, vitamin E is good to you. But overdoing it might lead to Vitamin E poisoning.
