4 j: l; l4 o" k* E7 o; A& v2) 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.
& U% ?% I- J/ A5 u5 v) {3 \; b2 {3 [# r1 b9 e! b
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.

Even though some of the above are beneficial to your health, if you overdo it, they might actually harm you.
