Elderly women who eat more meat are more likely to suffer fractures
Women over 65 years old who eat too much meat will lose femoral tissue faster. Various proteins in the diet can play different roles in bone metabolism. Animal foods provide mainly precursor acids, while proteins in plant foods contain basic precursors. An imbalance between precursor acids and basic precursors in the diet may cause the accumulation of acidic substances, which may have adverse effects on bones.
Increasing plant protein intake while reducing animal protein in the diet can reduce femoral tissue loss and the risk of hip fractures.
