' Y: \4 X) Z4 A* n+ ]Based on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two, ; I4 c& Z5 y5 ^/ z- V" c

High-acid cranberry juice controls harmful bacteria. ( B. x# u$ n  A7 m

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.
) I3 U7 X4 f& v" H9 N- Q4 Q" s2 T0 ~# D1 |" K  }4 z& i
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. / Y6 A# J( Q+ [, n6 j  P

A balance diet, and exercise regularly ' g1 W/ l6 O6 j' q

Even though some of the above are beneficial to your health, if you overdo it, they might actually harm you.
9 t+ R; r4 q* L% k$ L# G: R* a, s# v; v1 _! p! Y6 O* y& ~! j
For example, vitamin E is good to you. But overdoing it might lead to Vitamin E poisoning.

Therefore, eat a balance diet (eat everything in moderate), and exercise regularly. These are the most important factors for good health.
