    1. Do not drink tea immediately after eating seaweed (tea contains tannic acid), and do not eat sour fruits immediately (sour fruits contain vegetable acids). Because kelp is rich in iron, the above two foods will hinder the absorption of iron in the body. 2. Patients with hyperthyroidism should not eat kelp, because the iodine content in kelp is rich, which will aggravate the condition. 3. Pregnant women and nursing mothers should not eat too much seaweed. This is because the iodine in kelp can enter the fetus and infant with blood circulation, causing thyroid dysfunction
