Optimal meals to reduce bone loss in women with thinning bones
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are under 80 years old
- Your blood level of a bone breakdown marker (CTX) is 0.40 ng/mL or higher

This study tests whether combining time-restricted eating (eating only during a set window of hours each day) with exercise can improve bone health in people with low bone density (osteopenia). It may help you strengthen your bones and reduce fracture risk.
This study compares getting calcium from food (like dairy or fortified foods) versus taking a calcium supplement (calcium carbonate) to see which is better for bone health. If you join, you'll follow one of these approaches for 4 weeks, and the results may help guide better ways to prevent weak bones.
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 compares two treatment plans for women with osteoporosis to see which one improves hip bone density more. Participants will either get two medications in sequence (romosozumab followed by denosumab) or one medication (zoledronic acid), both given as injections or infusions. The goal is to find a treatment that reduces fracture risk.
This trial studies a preventive treatment for people over 55 who have early bone thinning (called osteopenia). If you qualify, it may help reduce the risk of getting osteoporosis and related fractures.
This trial compares dairy and plant-based drinks to see which is better for bone health when you also do resistance training. If you are a postmenopausal woman or a man 50 or older, you may join to help find out which drink helps bones most.
