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

0 A1 x& h, _7 O' m  p' t2) 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.
  x7 M! X7 i* e6 x" r/ E! {" j2 A3 |+ W' N6 \4 j
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. : n9 }8 j+ A1 t

Even though some of the above are beneficial to your health, if you overdo it, they might actually harm you.+ ?: Y. m2 Z& `+ |6 l  |

For example, vitamin E is good to you. But overdoing it might lead to Vitamin E poisoning. " v1 T6 j) W% G8 B

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