How much liquid kelp should you give a toddler?

Question

I know for sure that he doesn't get the dietary amount of iodine that he should and I don't want to overdo it, so I'd like to know what the safe amount is. 4 drops is safe for adults, but how much for a child? My friend said that it makes people grow tall, but I could care less about that.

Answer 1

You don't have any iodized salt?

Answer 2

Just give them some sea weed sheets; nori seaweed.  Kids love it.  It's like paper, rips like paper, but they can eat it too without mama getting angry at them.

Liquid kelp -- I've never heard of it.  What's wrong with just eating sea weed.  My kids love it and to snack on it and in soups etc.

Answer 3

You need to consult your child's pediatrician. From what I have found online, I have found it's main use in fertilizers, and poisons, not really for human consumption. But some sites say, it is best to do what I mentioned at the beginning of this, because it is not normal to give to any human that I know.
