What is The effects of a two‐year randomized, controlled trial of whey protein supplementation on bone structure, IGF‐1, and urinary calcium excretion in older postmenopausal women about?
## Abstract The effects of dietary protein on bone structure and metabolism have been controversial, with evidence for and against beneficial effects. Because no long‐term randomized, controlled studies have been performed, a two‐year study of protein supplementation in 219 healthy ambulant women aged 70 to 80 years was undertaken. Participants were randomized to either a high‐protein drink containing 30 g of whey protein (__n__ = 109) or a placebo drink identical in energy content, appearance, and taste containing 2.1 g of protein (__n__ = 110). Both drinks provided 600 mg of calcium. Dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometric (DXA) hip areal bone mineral density (aBMD), 24‐hour urinary calcium excretion, and serum insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1) were measured at baseline and at 1 and 2 years. Quantitative computed tomographic (QCT) hip volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) and a femoral neck engineering strength analysis were undertaken at baseline and at 2 years. Baseline average protein intake was 1.1 g/kg of body weight per day. There was a significant decrease in hip DXA aBMD and QCT vBMD over 2 years with no between‐group differences. Femoral neck strength was unchanged in eith
