Weight > 140 kg; total hip bone mineral density (BMD) t score < -2.0; history of low-trauma peripheral or spine fracture with a total hip BMD t score less than -1.0; taking hormone replacement therapy, bisphosphonates, steroids, diuretics, calcium or vitamin D; parathyroid disease, vitamin D concentration < 60 mol/L with secondary hyperthyroidism; unstable metabolic, cardiac gastrointestinal, renal or other significant disease including malignancies.
Research Purpose:
To assess if a high-protein (HP) weight loss diet was detrimental to bone health compared with a high-normal protein (HNP) diet matched for energy.
