Based on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two, + R7 K  {, V$ D7 b, p
$ s; Q  o) `0 h2 Z2 o
1) BLADDER INFECTION? DRINK CRANBERRY JUICE!!!! " C' x  E& z' a* a4 T# L! w' a
High-acid cranberry juice controls harmful bacteria. ; ~, J; o" ~4 ^- g: K7 [
. |" o; R7 j0 W. j1 ]
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./ J  I4 }* ~' y; Q8 H
: Y& ?/ _7 r$ A5 d
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.+ V& {8 G# R0 Q9 E
