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
Blue-green algae produce two toxins, each with different symptoms. Signs of neurotoxin poisoning usually appear 15 to 20 minutes after ingestion. In animals, symptoms include weakness, staggering, difficulty in breathing, convulsions and ultimately death. In humans, symptoms may include numbness of the lips, tingling in fingers and toes, and dizziness.
