Kirkland Protein Bars on Costco - Don't buy them
i hate to tell you but most fiber constipates me. Specially commercial fibers. Natural fiber in nuts or in some veggies - that is part of veggies - does not.
Some fiber may have laxative type effect- but that depends on a fiber and a person.
There were even studies that showed that reducing fiber can reduce constipation.

The "fiber" in EVERY protein bar I have looked at is actually the artificial sweetener, and acts accordingly. Only in a legal sense is it considered a fiber. The manufacturers also like it because they can advertise lower net carbs by subtracting the "fiber" from overall carb counts.
it's all a trap. I use protein bars often, and they are good for me, but I have no illusions about what they are, or the healthfulness of their "fiber."
