1) BLADDER INFECTION? DRINK CRANBERRY JUICE!!!! 9 o: O4 z1 l( ]; R( W; f

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.* i0 ^% q! L) W
1 t' g0 i1 ^: b4 G+ C3 r. u6 |, ?
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.
