The study, published in the October issue of the Journal of Nutrition, sought to find out whether fruit- and vegetable-specific antioxidants such as vitamin C might decrease oxidative stress that is linked to accelerated bone loss. Bone mineral density was measured in nearly 900 men and women around the age of 75. Among a subset of the participants—whose bone mineral density was again measured after four years—different interactions were observed. During those four years, vitamin C appeared to be protective against losses in bone mineral density in two areas of the hip among men with low calcium or vitamin E intakes. That finding is consistent with previous reports that higher fruit and vegetable intake has positive effects on bone mineral status.

The study, published in the October issue of the Journal of Nutrition, sought to find out whether fruit- and vegetable-specific antioxidants such as vitamin C might decrease oxidative stress that is linked to accelerated bone loss. Bone mineral density was measured in nearly 900 men and women around the age of 75. Among a subset of the participants—whose bone mineral density was again measured after four years—different interactions were observed. During those four years, vitamin C appeared to be protective against losses in bone mineral density in two areas of the hip among men with low calcium or vitamin E intakes. That finding is consistent with previous reports that higher fruit and vegetable intake has positive effects on bone mineral status. Osteoporosis—a condition in which bones become porous and weak—affects about 10 million people in the U.S. population. To read the full article, click here! Inspiration Veg Options in Schools High school students Devan and Alexandria Quintana were tired of the limited options in the school cafeteria for vegetarians and vegans like themselves. Motivated to make a change for the better at Carter High School in Rialto, CA, the sisters rounded up fellow students to lobby the school district. Working with senior Janet Basurto, the district's student school board member who has been a vegan since age 11, they turned in a petition to the district with 452 signatures of students who support adding meat-free entrees to the menu. The school now offers a separate lunch line for vegetarians and vegans, providing meals like bean and rice burritos and gardenburgers. They’ll soon be adding veggie wraps and a soy chick’n sandwich. According to the school’s kitchen manager, the veg lunch line has been gaining popularity, even among students who eat meat. At first two came, then 10, and now the line averages 108 students! As students become increasingly aware of the benefits of veg eating, more schools are providing options in response. In 2007, according to the School Nutrition Association, 36.6% of elementary schools, 42% of middle schools, 48.4% of high schools nationwide offered vegetarian meals.
