Based on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two, 4 x$ \# j7 Q/ N7 @

! a" K/ z% b) p* }) M4 D, p) {1) BLADDER INFECTION? DRINK CRANBERRY JUICE!!!!

1 o- a+ b; z6 u% K( N2 v" o$ F2) 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.
9 j& J7 B9 o2 X9 b- E+ j& L6 [$ e$ h0 A: c( a. R- o) e; Z
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.
$ y$ {( U4 e! F7 p: t
5 E3 l. B2 V4 m6 |1 z$ Z- nA balance diet, and exercise regularly
4 A; ?  ?7 W( A+ J$ i- ]$ I) w1 Y) }% c0 R
/ X& q% {  ?5 |% O" M1 l& YEven though some of the above are beneficial to your health, if you overdo it, they might actually harm you.
" h8 g1 B1 J  k4 t# E/ a9 K/ D/ i( S. L# H) s; |
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.
