Dietary acid load, trabecular bone integrity, and mineral density in an ageing population: the Rotterdam study

ConclusionsHigh NEAP was associated with low TBS. Associations of AnPro/K and VegPro/K and TBS were non-linear and differently shaped. No significant associations of DAL with BMD were observed, nor was there any significant interaction between DAL and renal function. Mainly in participants with high intake of dietary fibre, DAL might be detrimental to bone.
