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

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.4 Z; N# G& f2 k% _* b, M1 a
  E! T5 Z' ?: d3 Q8 o7 @* x
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.

For example, vitamin E is good to you. But overdoing it might lead to Vitamin E poisoning. . K5 I0 N9 _4 R9 q1 T. ]+ H8 d
