Dietary protein and bone health: a systematic review and meta-analysis
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 11/05/09
Darling AL et al. – A small positive effect of protein supplementation on lumbar spine BMD in randomized placebo–controlled trials supports the positive association between protein intake and bone health found in cross–sectional surveys. However, these results were not supported by cohort study findings for hip fracture risk. Any effects found were small and had 95% CIs that were close to zero. Therefore, there is a small benefit of protein on bone health, but the benefit may not necessarily translate into reduced fracture risk in the long term.
