Brief Answer:
Use naturally occurring source of dietary fibers
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXX,
Thanks for your query.
Though there is lack of literature evidence regarding side effects of nutralite fiber on long term usage.
But, it is always advisable to use naturally occurring source of dietary fibers (which act as a bulk laxative, absorb water from the Gastrointestinal tract, softens stool & prevents constipation) as compared to the commercially prepared ones.
The thought that you will have constipation after stoppage of nutralite fiber is purely a psychological one.
In the absence of any systemic pathology, constipation is mainly caused due to sedentary lifestyle, lack of adequate hydration & intake of less fiber XXXXXXX foods.
And as you have mentioned in your post that you are doing regular exercise & maintaining the hydration status of the body, the symptoms of constipation may not arise at all.
Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
