I might have consumed lead. Will I be ok?

I have just eaten a seaweed snack product bought at my local farmers market. It says that it is a product of Korea. I did some research regarding seaweed snack products from Korea and it turns out that they contain a level of lead. I know the dangers of lead (long term and short term) and I am concerned. Will I be ok and what should I do?

Thanks in advance.

    You would have to consume a vast quantity of seaweed snacks over a long period of time before they would cause you to develop lead poisoning. Eating just one seafood snack (even if it did contain lead) isn't going to hurt you.
