New Perspectives on Dietary Protein and Bone Health

Low Protein Intake: The Impact on Calcium and Bone Homeostasis in Humans1,2

ABSTRACT Increasing dietary protein results in an increase in urinary calcium. Despite over 80 y of research, the source of the additional urinary calcium remains unclear. Because most calcium balance studies found little effect of dietary protein on intestinal calcium absorption, it was assumed that the skeleton was the source of the calcium. The hypothesis was that the high endogenous acid load generated by a protein-rich diet would increase bone resorption and ...
