Hi, I was having issue in my bowl moment and I was facing constipation. So my doc recommend me lactifiber. I am using it from last 2 weeks and I am feeling better now. I want to ask that can I use lacto fiber daily? Can I continue using it for life time. Or is there any better option which I can use daily and there will be no side effect of it as well.

It can be associated with side effects like respiratory tract infections and increased blood pressure, so it is not advisable to take it life long. You should use it intermittently, during periods when constipation is disturbing. It is better if you treat constipation by natural means rest of the times. Increase fiber content in food by taking whole-wheat bread, unrefined cereals, plenty of fruit and vegetables. Take plenty of water. Engage in physical activity regularly (at least half an hour daily).
