Science
Certain lifestyle factors help to maintain strong and healthy bones, including getting enough calcium and vitamin D, and doing regular exercise. In addition to these factors, it is now believed that the health of the gut microbiome plays an important role in the maintenance of healthy bones(1).
After reaching a peak in early adulthood, bone mineral density slowly declines over time, with particularly high rates occurring in women in the years following menopause. Daily supplementation with probiotics has been shown to reduce bone loss in post-menopausal women(2), and may help to maintain stronger and healthier bones in later life.
