Based on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two, 0 j$ a0 k. F" i6 l4 t# I8 b# \; 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.( C% x' C& |1 b3 z# P& ~
4 W1 L* i0 J9 R& w0 t6 L% ^
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

Even though some of the above are beneficial to your health, if you overdo it, they might actually harm you." }& q; C4 @0 _+ Y; z" v) p

Therefore, eat a balance diet (eat everything in moderate), and exercise regularly. These are the most important factors for good health.5 t: S5 t2 S! s
