Effect of Calcium and Vitamin D Supplementation on Bone Density in Men and Women 65 Years of Age or Older
TL;DR: In men and women 65 years of age or older who are living in the community, dietary supplementation with calcium and vitamin D moderately reduced bone loss measured in the femoral neck, spine, and total body over the three-year study period and reduced the incidence of nonvertebral fractures.
Journal ArticleDOI
A controlled trial of the effect of calcium supplementation on bone density in postmenopausal women.
Bess Dawson-Hughes,G.E Dallal,Elizabeth A. Krall,Laura Sadowski,Nadine R. Sahyoun,Saul Tannenbaum +5 more
TL;DR: Healthy older postmenopausal women with a daily calcium intake of less than 400 mg can significantly reduce bone loss by increasing their calcium intake to 800 mg per day.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heritable and life-style determinants of bone mineral density
TL;DR: Support is provided for a significant contribution of heredity to bone density, however, an individual's life‐style may account for a potentially large proportion of the nonheritable variance in bone density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Vitamin D Supplementation on Wintertime and Overall Bone Loss in Healthy Postmenopausal Women
Bess Dawson-Hughes,Gerard E. Dallal,Elizabeth A. Krall,Susan S. Harris,Lori J. Sokoll,Gladys Falconer +5 more
TL;DR: At latitude 42 degrees, healthy postmenopausal women with vitamin D intakes of 100 IU daily can significantly reduce late wintertime bone loss and improve net bone density of the spine over one year by increasing their intake of vitamin D to 500 IU daily.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of vitamin D intake on seasonal variations in parathyroid hormone secretion in postmenopausal women.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the dietary intake of more than 220 IU of vitamin D a day by postmenopausal women in Massachusetts may be sufficient to maintain constant serum 25(OH)D and parathyroid hormone concentrations throughout the year.
