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

High-acid cranberry juice controls harmful bacteria.

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.: Z" l  \- C3 H4 T* L3 v7 u$ n, M
4 V6 j! K% H7 ~  v8 M9 M/ S. O
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.
4 M8 }; h0 f* s) ^3 P! m. c3 x* Q7 I, J' ?+ A* U
A balance diet, and exercise regularly 9 V, b- o$ l7 `0 l4 w8 N4 u9 i
