title: [Evidence of dietary therapy for osteoporosis].
abstract: A significant point of dietary therapy for osteoporosis is that calcium, vitamin D and vitamin K are recommended to be actively administered on top of sufficient intake of energy and the other nutrients including protein. In Japanese guidelines for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis 2006 edition, daily intake of calcium and vitamin D is encouraged at least 800mg and 400 to 800IU (10 to 20microg) , respectively. Calcium and vitamin D are also important for maximizing the effect of drug for osteoporosis. Calcium and vitamin D supplementation could be a supportive measure, when their necessary requirement is difficult to be consumed.
