The Effect of B12 Deficiency on Bone Health

Theoretically a long-term plant-based diet may reduce the risk of osteoporosis But that has yet to be demonstrated. Plant-based diets when ensuring adequate calcium and vitamin D levels Don't appear to have any detrimental effects on bone health. If indeed this is cause and effect eating vegan there would be an annual one in 500 chance of having a bone fracture That you otherwise might not have had Was it because they weren't eating enough beans? Apparently not since vegans getting more protein still apparently had higher risk Maybe it's because they weren’t getting enough calcium or B12 deficiency, but those with high homocysteine levels were at greater risk.
