Hyperthyroidism: Sea Moss is high in iodine, which can exacerbate hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid). Individuals with this condition should avoid or consult their healthcare provider before using Sea Moss.

Iodine Sensitivity: Individuals with a known allergy to iodine or seafood should avoid bladderwrack as it can trigger allergic reactions.

Medications and Supplements

• Antithyroid Medications: If you are taking thyroid medications, especially those for hypothyroidism, consult your doctor as Sea Moss can affect thyroid hormone levels.

• Blood Thinners: Sea Moss contains anticoagulant properties, which can enhance the effects of blood-thinning medications and increase the risk of bleeding.

• Blood Pressure Medication: The potassium content in Sea Moss may affect blood pressure. Those on blood pressure medications should consult their healthcare provider.
