Study Summary
Postmenopausal women often seek non-pharmacologic interventions for the protection of bone health. Previous research in humans and rodents has indicated that dietary dried plum consumption may be beneficial for bone health, especially in postmenopausal women. However, it is unknown in what quantity dried plums need to be consumed to be of benefit and through what mechanisms dried plums act to impact bone health. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of 52 weeks of dried plums consumption in varying quantities on bone mineral density (BMD), bone geometry, and estimated bone strength in postmenopausal women. The investigators also seek to evaluate the mechanisms underlying the effects of dried plums as a dietary supplement by assessing polyphenols and the bioavailable conjugated metabolites in the urine of postmenopausal women taking different doses of dietary dried plums. The investigators aim to further investigate the mechanisms of dried plum action on bone by measuring markers of bone metabolism in response to dried plum consumption.
