itemprop=description content=The study examines how various dietary patterns, beyond the Mediterranean diet, influence osteoporosis and fracture risk in older adults, emphasizing the importance of both diet and exercise in bone health. Regional diets, exercise, and consistent research methodologies are critical for comprehensive osteoporosis prevention guidelines.
By Priyanjana Pramanik, MSc.Oct 8 2023Reviewed by Benedette Cuffari, M.Sc. A recent study published in the journal Nutrients explores the role of different dietary patterns in protecting older people from osteoporosis and related fractures.
Osteoporosis is a significant cause of illness and death among older people and appears to affect more women than men. Current estimates indicate that over 200 million people have osteoporosis, which has become one of the most common non-communicable diseases in the world. Osteoporosis can be treated effectively, even prevented, but is often not detected before a fall or fracture.
About the study Although most previous studies used traditional MD scores to determine the impact of MD on osteoporotic fracture risk in Mediterranean populations, traditional MD ingredients are not always available in other regions of the world. As a result, the authors of the present study examined the modified MD and alternative MD , as well as other traditional dietary patterns such as Nordic or Chinese diets.
Each of the selected studies for the review was observational and used a cross-sectional or prospective cohort design. Study participants were over 50 years of age and could be of any ethnicity or race. Study findings Two of the six studies were cross-sectional, whereas the others were prospective cohort studies, all published after 2015. The study populations were European, American, and Asian and between the ages of 50 to 85 years.
However, stricter adherence to the DASH guidelines reduced the probability of developing lumbar spine osteoporosis. The DASH diet was associated with a lower lumbar and femoral neck BMD than the BSD.
