Seaweed (wakame) is not hard to digest, infact its quite the opposite!

As a person who suffers IBS, Fructose Malabsorption & Dairy Intolerance; I can say my digestion is less than stellar.

Seaweed is high in iron, iodine, zinc, b vitamin groups and many more.

If you suffer from bad digestion, don't eat 'seaweed salad' (treated/vinegared seaweed with chilli and sesame) but dried seaweed such as served in super markets and Asian markets and also what is served with sushi.

Just make sure you drink fluid with your seaweed, chew your food thoroughly and include other foods in your meals such as lean protein, vegetables and carbs.

Enjoy and good health!
