( K2 N6 Q+ X& v9 I- c awow.....are those truth..........thanks for the tips.......

Based on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two, . k* R; D6 {& ]: u

1) BLADDER INFECTION? DRINK CRANBERRY JUICE!!!! ! w% D/ V( k8 F8 b
High-acid cranberry juice controls harmful bacteria. 4 _% B+ D4 K/ h) z& U* n% C. A% _

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./ {% t3 K% Y$ c; ^# y

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
! Y  |* G" V9 I& X; O! f$ V4 o
Even though some of the above are beneficial to your health, if you overdo it, they might actually harm you.0 u/ M+ y  W' J. i* C
2 d( T0 F% W. {  [- w
For example, vitamin E is good to you. But overdoing it might lead to Vitamin E poisoning.
1 j2 H  v  S8 F  J, u# l+ q9 h
Therefore, eat a balance diet (eat everything in moderate), and exercise regularly. These are the most important factors for good health.# _! K& ^1 p# ?' y8 X' S: s
