Diet and osteoporosis

Hi, Can nutrition reverse or cure osteoporosis? Thank You

Thanks for your question.  While you cannot 'cure' or reverse osteoporosis, there are medications that will help to maintain current bone mass and prevent further loss.  These include Fosamax, Boniva and other prescription medications. A diet high in calcium and vitamin D will help to maintain bone mass, as will calcium and vitamin D supplementation.  Regular exercise (weight bearing such as walking) will also help to maintain bone mass.  Check with your doctor for other options.
