Why is lean meat healthy for people with osteoporosis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lean meat isn't-: -a treatment for osteoporosis. It is a source of protein. The simplest treatment is Vit-D & calcium.BUT the most effective way to obtain proper treatment for you is to have a workup by an endocrinologist as there are many factors that enter into the plan of care: fracture history, family history,T-score, to name a few.
