Based on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two,

  E6 ~' ^8 S9 P; x/ Z/ [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.7 M+ n# A! M* b

6 L* y& ^! A6 A0 i3 i8 Y5 LMany 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.
