Open Question: Is taking Prenatal Vitamins and fish oil together safe?
I take my prenatals every day, but I have some fish oil pills too, and I was wondering if it was safe to take them together. I heard fish oil can help reduce cravings and extra Weight gain during pregnancy, so is it okay to pair the 2? I'll be seeing my OB in 2 weeks and I'll ask her before I take anything. But I just wanted to know if any women ever paired the 2

Open Question: Chemistry titration help?
A 0.600 g sample of ascorbic acid is titrated with 0.15 M KIO3 in excess acid and excess KI(s) what volume of KIO3 is required to reach the end point?
IO3- (aq) + 5 I- (aq) + 6 H+ (aq) --> 3 I2 (aq) + 3 H2O
Almost as quickly as it is formed, the ascorbic acid reacts with the I2.
I2(aq) + C6H8O6 (aq) + H2O --> C6H8O7 (aq) + 2 I- (aq) + 2 H+ (aq)
When all the vitamin C has reacted, the concentration of I2 builds up to a level where it will react with I- to form triiodide, I3-.(blue)
I2 + I- --> I3-

Open Question: High blood pressure questions... 190/110?
My Doctor has been monitoring my blood pressure for 3 months and it's only been going up and up... she wanted to prescribe me: Vaseretic. I have no idea what this medication is, or what it does and to top all that off, I don't even know where high blood pressure comes from or what I can do to change it.
I gained some weight recently and I've been trying to go for walks to help work it off, I eat properly, I also have Hypothyroidism and P.C.O.S. So I have a lot going against me right now and I don't know what I can do to help bring this down. I don't have a lot of money for medications and I'm already spending quiet a bit on the 2 I have to take all the time.
Any suggestions on natural ways to bring it down? Tea's? Vitamins? I'll take any suggestions.

Open Question: how to improve eyesight?
Is their any way to help improve some ones eye sight besides laser eye surgery. The three things I heard of was eating certain foods, taking vitamins and doing eye exercises. Though it is wishful thinking for one of these to help me since my eyes are beginning to decline once again :( and im still young. The last time my eyes got worse, went from near perfect vision to -4.00. Being the skeptic that I am, its hard to find reliable sources online. Any and more information on this subject would be much obliged, but most importantly if any of this possible.
lol 1901 I do wear glasses, and contacts just would be nice to not wake up every morning feeling blind is all.

Open Question: How many vitamins do frozen veggies lose by boiling?
I had my freezer full of frozen peas from back when my husband had broken foot and he used the bags to chill his swollen foot. I ran out of vegetable baby jars for my kid and I saw these bags in a freezer so I decided to boil them, then mash them and then use a hand mixer (I dont own a food processor) and try to puree it and put it in baby containers. My son ate it, he didnt mind it was chunky. I wonder how many vitamins is left in it after like 5 or 10 minutes of boiling or should I keep buying baby food (gerber, del monte, beach nut etc.) in the store?
