It is generally advised to avoid taking kelp or other iodine-rich supplements while on levothyroxine, as they can interfere with thyroid hormone levels. Kelp contains high amounts of iodine, which can affect thyroid function and potentially disrupt the effectiveness of levothyroxine. Always consult with a healthcare professional before adding any supplements to your regimen.

Kelp is a natural iodine. This helps with the thyroid gland, and people take it for energy boosts. Kelp contains antioidants, which are believed to help cleanse the body of toxins. Some people take kelp to aleviate constipation. Kelp has natural vitamins and minerals. People will consume kelp to help with a deficiency in their diet. Because of its richness in vitamins, kelp is also used in products like hair vitamin supplements.
Most acne medicine have one very important ingredient in common. This special ingredient is known as Thyminal, this chemical dries the acne and allows for it's removal.
Hyperthyroidism has been associated with the excessive ingestion of kelp and is attributable to the iodine content in the plant. Typical symptoms of hyperthyroidism include: weight loss, sweating, fatigue, heart palpitations and frequent soft stools. The iodine content in kelp has been associated with acne eruptions and may aggravate pre-existing acne. Elevated urinary arsenic concentrations have also been traced to the ingestion of kelp tablets. As such, kelp used as a food and/or for a medicinal product should not exceed arsenic levels above 3.0 ppm and lead levels above 10.0 ppm based on the internationally recognized Food Chemicals Codex. Prolonged ingestion of kelp in large quantities may also reduce gastrointestinal iron absorption and affect absorption of sodium and potassium and cause diarrhea.
They can cause problems for the kelp by sticking to it and feeding off there energy source. Also by not letting go and causing the kelp to sink to the bottom and not get the sun light it needs.
