Nutritional Aspects of Osteoporosis is based on presentations given at the Fifth International Symposium on Nutritional Aspects of Osteoporosis held in Lausanne, Switzerland in 2003. Although an often neglected chapter of medical research, the nutritional influences on bone health was a discussed topic at this congress. Also discussed were new insights into the role of proteins, vitamins, potassium, vegetables, food acid load, mineral waters and calcium.

This book is based on the presentations given at the 5th International Symposium on Nutritional Aspects of Osteoporosis held in Lausanne, Switzerland in 2003.
The way we choose to eat can offer preventive and therapeutic health benefits - even preventing the onset of diseases such as osteoporosis.
In Nutritional Aspects of Osteoporosis, over 20 international experts share their knowledge of proper nutrition and how it influences the growth and development of peak bone mass, maintains bone mass in adults, and reduces bone loss in the elderly. These experts describe the great variety of nutrients and foods that can be used in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, nutrients such as protein, vitamin K, vitamin A, vitamin D, sodium, and potassium, and they break new ground in exploring the significant contribution to bone health from these nutrients'.
State-of-the-art reviews on:
· The new understanding of the roles calcium and vitamin D in growth and development
· The functions of dietary proteins in bone health
· The significance of dietary magnesium, vitamin D, vitamin A, and vitamin K
· Acidbase balance, sodium, and potassium as determinants of the bone and calcium economy
· The confirmation of the benefits of dairy products, and the factors behind current antidairy activism
