claim1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Bone health is a major concern for postmenopausal women, as estrogen deficiency after menopause accelerates bone resorption and suppresses bone formation, leading to reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and an increased risk of fractures [].

topicEggshell Calcium Vitamin D Bone Mineral Density Randomized Trial
claimAmong the various risk factors for osteoporosis, modifiable lifestyle factors—particularly insufficient calcium and vitamin D intake, as well as inadequate physical activity—are of special importance, alongside other established factors such as advanced age and low body mass index (BMI) [].

claimIn Korea, calcium and vitamin D intakes remain persistently inadequate, largely due to low dairy consumption associated with traditional dietary patterns and widespread lactose intolerance, and this insufficiency becomes increasingly pronounced with advancing age [,].

topicEggshell Calcium Vitamin D Bone Mineral Density Randomized Trial
claimIt was hypothesized that increasing the dietary proportion of CL would promote more stable Ca homeostasis in laying hens, thereby enhancing eggshell and bone quality, with more pronounced effects in older hens due to their reduced Ca absorptive efficiency.
