Beef: Beneficial to Bone Health
Osteoporosis is a major health concern affecting nearly 50 million Americans. Controversy persists about whether consuming meat protein is good or bad for calcium nutrition and bone health. The beef checkoff supported research led by Jay Cao, Ph.D., and his associates at USDA Grand Forks Human Nutrition Research Center to further examine this topic and the findings were recently published in the January 2011 issue of the Journal of Nutrition.
Funded by the Beef Checkoff.
