Prunes Bone Health Randomized TrialObjectives: The purpose of the present systematic review was to summarize the evidence from the randomized controlled studies on the effect of prunes on bone health in humans and to pool the results in a meta-analysis.1Treister-Goltzman Y (2026)Effects of Prunes on Bone Density in Humans: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.
Prunes Bone Health Randomized TrialThe effect of prune intervention in postmenopausal women was borderline significant at the lumbar spine, with BMD slightly higher in the intervention group (SMD [95% CI] = 1.30 [-0.03, 2.63]; I 2 = 98%; p Conclusions: Our meta-analysis provides preliminary evidence of modest skeletal benefits associated with consumption of 50-100 g of prunes, particularly at the lumbar spine, a trabecular-rich site.1Treister-Goltzman Y (2026)Effects of Prunes on Bone Density in Humans: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.
Prunes Bone Health Randomized TrialBackground: Recent studies suggest that prunes are one of the most effective fruits for preventing and reversing bone loss.1Treister-Goltzman Y (2026)Effects of Prunes on Bone Density in Humans: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.
Prunes Bone Health Randomized TrialTartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b (TRAP5b) increased in all groups, albeit in the control group, it increased significantly more over time compared to the increase in the 100 g group.2Ormsbee LT (2026)Prune Consumption and Bone Health in Older Men: A One-Year Randomized Controlled Trial.
Prunes Bone Health Randomized Trialadults aged 50 or older have low bone mass, yet male bone health remains under-researched.2Ormsbee LT (2026)Prune Consumption and Bone Health in Older Men: A One-Year Randomized Controlled Trial.
Prunes Bone Health Randomized TrialThis study evaluated the effects of one year of prune supplementation on bone health in older men susceptible to, or with, osteopenia.2Ormsbee LT (2026)Prune Consumption and Bone Health in Older Men: A One-Year Randomized Controlled Trial.
