This trial tests whether specific meals can lower bone breakdown in postmenopausal women with osteopenia (thinning bones). It may help prevent osteoporosis by identifying a meal plan that protects bone health.
This study looks at ways to prevent and treat “brittle bone” refractures after a recent fracture in people with osteoporosis. If you’ve had a new hip, spine, or other bone fracture, the trial may test strategies to lower the chance of another fracture.
This trial tests a combination of vitamin K, D-chiro inositol, and α-lactalbumin to help maintain bone strength in women with breast cancer who are on hormone therapy and have low vitamin D. It aims to see if these supplements improve bone health while you take a standard bone medication (alendronate).
This study tests whether adding milk and yogurt to your diet can improve bone health and body composition. If you're a young adult with low calcium intake, you may qualify to join.
This study tests whether a medication called veverimer can help reduce bone loss in adults with osteopenia (early bone thinning) by lowering the acid load from their diet. Participants must be 50 or older, eat a typical Western diet, and have low bone density but not full osteoporosis.
This study tests whether a daily probiotic supplement can help prevent bone loss in adults aged 60 and older. It is designed for people who have chosen not to take standard osteoporosis medications.
