Olive oil, nuts, and avocados all contain healthy fats, which can help lubricate your intestines and ease constipation. A salad with fiber-rich leafy greens and a simple olive oil dressing, a small handful of nuts, or a tablespoon of natural nut butter on fruit or toast are good options.
Contamination: Some side effects can occur if the right brand of kelp is not taken. Some kelp products could be contaminated by toxins like mercury and arsenic found in many oceans. When such kelp products are consumed, especially in excess, it could result in symptoms of arsenic poisoning. This includes hair loss, drowsiness, memory loss, headaches and confusion. If you do experience any of these symptoms, stop taking kelp and consult your doctor immediately. Precautions
1 Symptoms of arsenic poisoning vary with the type and concentration of the poison. 2  Inorganic arsenic may cause abdominal pains, destruction of red blood cells (hemolysis), shock, and death quickly. Lower concentrations of inorganic arsenic and organic arsenic cause far less severe symptoms. 2  Diagnosis of arsenic poisoning is made by determining inorganic and organic levels of arsenic in the blood and urine.
