“…Also, the plants are often treated with pesticides and the result of that exposure effect the increase of blood phosphorus and a decrease in total blood protein level, which could result in elevated PTH levels (Hu et al 2015). The results of our study are in accordance with the study performed on adult females that adopted plant food-based diet, resulting in increased PTH levels (Merrill and Aldana 2009). Higher serum PTH levels was also detected in a study questioning to which extent a vegan diet has a negative impact on bone health (Hansen et al 2018).…”

“…The effect of nutrients on PTH level has been moderately studied. Higher concentration of serum PTH have been observed in vegans and adult females with plant food-based adopted diet (Merrill and Aldana 2009;Hansen et al 2018), however, lower PTH concentrations were observed in early pubertal children frequently consuming vegetables (Tylavsky et al 2004). Low-protein diet has been associated with increment as well as in decrement of PTH level (Giannini et al 1999;Kerstetter et al 2000).…”

Although the effect of isolated nutrients on plasma parathyroid hormone (PTH) is somewhat familiar, the effect of multiple nutrients on plasma PTH level has not yet been studied. The aim of this study was to identify groups of food items that are associated with the plasma PTH level in healthy individuals.This cross-sectional study enrolled 1180 healthy individuals from Croatia with plasma PTH levels inside the referent values. A food frequency questionnaire containing 58 food items was completed to evaluate the dietary intake. We used principal component analysis to reduce food items into dietary groups, followed by linear regression analysis to test the association between dietary groups and the level of PTH.The results indicate that different sorts of vegetables (p ¼ .006), sausages, salami, mushrooms, eggs (p ¼ .033), as well as white bread (p ¼ .009) are associated with the increase, while bran bread (p ¼ .009) is associated with the decreased plasma PTH level.

“…Changes in nutritional status were evaluated during intervention studies with plant-based diets in healthy persons (Complete Health Improvement Project) [148] or low-fat VEG diets (about 10% of total energy) in diabetic [149] and in prostate cancer patients [150]. During the intervention period, reduced calcium and vitamin D intake [148] and lower vitamin D blood levels were observed [148]. A short-term study evaluated calcium balance in women who received a VEG diet during the first 10 days, and a LV diet during the following 10 days: calcium balance remained positive regardless of intake.…”

“…Diet seems to moderately affect osteoporosis, but calcium and vitamin D intake is very important, at least in older patients. Diets low in dairy products have been associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis [41]. A meta-analysis of nine studies reported lower BMD of the spine and hip in vegans compared to consumers who drink milk [42].…”

Dietary Intake of Vitamin D from Dairy Products Reduces the Risk of Osteoporosis

Background: Vitamin D and calcium are important dietary compounds that affect bone mass, even if other minerals (potassium, zinc, etc.) and vitamins (A, C and K) are also involved. Vitamin D and certain minerals, in fact, play an important role in calcium homeostasis and calcium absorption. Hip fracture incidence is higher in Europe and the United States, where calcium is frequently included in the human diet; while the occurrence of these fractures is lower in developing countries, where diets are often poor in calcium. This condition is named the “calcium paradox”, and may be partially explained by phosphate toxicity, which can negatively affect mineral metabolism. It is important to maintain correct dietary calcium-phosphate balance in order to have a healthy life, reducing the risk of osteoporotic fractures in older people. Vitamin D can also act as a hormone; vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) is derived from the UV-B radiation of ergosterol, the natural vitamin D precursor detected in plants, fungi, and invertebrates. Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is synthesized by sunlight exposure from 7-dehydrocholesterol, a precursor of cholesterol that can also act as provitamin D3. Dietary intake of vitamin D3 is essential when the skin is exposed for short periods to ultraviolet B light (UV-B), a category of invisible light rays such as UV-A and UV-C. This can be considered the usual situation in northern latitudes during the winter season, or the typical lifestyle for older people and/or for people with very white delicate skin. The actual recommended daily intake of dietary vitamin D is strictly correlated with age, ranging from 5 μg for infants, children, teenagers, and adults—including pregnant and lactating women—to 15 μg for people over 65 years.

Consequences of a Plant-Based Diet with Low Dairy Consumption on Intake of Bone-Relevant Nutrients

Abstract: The Coronary Health Improvement Project increases the intake of important food items but decreases calcium and vitamin D consumption. There is also some evidence of an increase in NTx biomarkers, consistent with increased bone resorption.
