“…For example, Ilich et al found that light alcohol consumption (8 g alcohol/day), mostly wine, was positively associated with lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) and whole body BMD in postmenopausal women [8]. Similar results were reported in pre-and postmenopausal women drinking four beers per week [9], in female twins consuming eight drinks per week [10], in men consuming one beer or other alcoholic beverage per day [11], and in young male soldiers having between 24 and 105 g of alcohol per week [12]. In one study, Ganry et al found that a consumption of 1-10 g/day did not increase BMD values in women aged 80 years old compared to nondrinkers [2].…”

Alcohol and bone: review of dose effects and mechanisms

Alcohol is widely consumed across the world. It is consumed in both social and cultural settings. Until recently, two types of alcohol consumption were recognized: heavy chronic alcohol consumption or light consumption. Today, there is a new pattern of consumption among teenagers and young adults namely: binge drinking. Heavy alcohol consumption is detrimental to many organs and tissues, including bones, and is known to induce secondary osteoporosis. Some studies, however, have reported benefits from light alcohol consumption on bone parameters. To date, little is known regarding the effects of binge drinking on bone health. Here, we review the effects of three different means of alcohol consumption: light, heavy, and binge drinking. We also review the detailed literature on the different mechanisms by which alcohol intake may decrease bone mass and strength. The effects of alcohol on bone are thought to be both direct and indirect. The decrease in bone mass and strength following alcohol consumption is mainly due to a bone remodeling imbalance, with a predominant decrease in bone formation. Recent studies, however, have reported new mechanisms by which alcohol may act on bone remodeling, including osteocyte apoptosis, oxidative stress, and Wnt signalling pathway modulation. The roles of reduced total fat mass, increased lipid content in bone marrow, and a hypoleptinemia are also discussed.

“…The P interaction has to be considered at first: if there is an interaction between the effects of alcohol and exercise, the other P value have not to be considered. If the P interaction is not significant, then we can analyze the P alcohol and P exercise a Significant difference with C group b Significant difference with A group Eur J Appl Physiol (2011) 111:2931-29402937 have already been reported in the literature (Ganry et al 2000;Mukamal et al 2007;Pedrera-Zamorano et al 2009;Rapuri et al 2000;Venkat et al 2009). It seems that a low amount of alcohol over a short period of time does not damage bone microarchitecture in contrast to higher amounts.…”

Combined effects of chronic alcohol consumption and physical activity on bone health: study in a rat model

et al. 2011

Chronic alcohol consumption may be deleterious for bone tissue depending on the amount of ethanol consumed, whereas physical activity has positive effects on bone. This study was designed to analyze the effects of moderate alcohol consumption on bone in trained rats. 48 male Wistar rats were divided into four groups: control (C), alcohol (A), exercise (E) and alcohol + exercise (AE). A and AE groups drank a solution composed of water and ethanol. E and AE groups were trained for 2 months (treadmill: 40 min/day, 5 times/week). Body composition and bone mineral density (BMD) were assessed by dual X-ray absorptiometry and microarchitectural parameters using micro-computed tomography. Serum osteocalcin and CTx were determined by ELISA assays. The body weight and lean mass gain were lower in group A, while the fat mass gain was lower in exercised groups. BMD and BMC were higher with alcohol after body weight adjustment. Trabecular thickness was significantly higher in AE and A groups compared to C and E; cross-sectional area was larger in A and C groups compared to AE and E. CTx levels were higher in A compared to C and in AE and E versus C and A. Osteocalcin levels were significantly greater in AE and E groups versus C and A. In conclusion, the light to moderate alcohol consumption over a short period increased the trabecular thickness, BMC and BMD in A and AE groups. However, we observed alterations in bone remodeling and body composition with alcohol, at the end of the protocol, which did not appear when alcohol was combined to exercise.

“…Women enrolled in this study completed a 131-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). This FFQ was previously validated and involves 24-h recall performed over seven days [22,23,24,25,26]. A food cadmium, lead and mercury database was constructed based on the cadmium, lead and mercury contents previously reported with regard to the Spanish market [27].…”

Background: Heavy metals, such as lead, cadmium, and mercury, are absorbed through contaminated food sources and water. Few studies have investigated the extent to which dietary heavy metals are associated with low bone mineral density. Aims: We aimed to characterize the dietary intake of the heavy metals lead, cadmium and mercury among healthy, non-smoking postmenopausal women in Spain. Furthermore, we sought to establish a putative relationship between bone health and the intake of these heavy metals in this population. Study Design: The daily intake of the heavy metals considered for the different food groups was calculated by accounting for food content and consumption in 281 postmenopausal women. Bone measurements were performed using a Quantitative Bone Ultrasound (QUS), a Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) and a Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (pQCT). Results: The average estimated dietary cadmium exposure among the 281 women studied was 29.87 μg/day (20.41–41.04) and 3.03 μg/kg body weight (b.w.; 2.17–4.40). Dietary lead exposure was 46.24 μg/day (38.11–54.77) and 4.87 μg/kg b.w. (4.00–6.14). The estimated dietary mercury exposure was 11.64 μg/day and 1.19 μg/kg b.w. (0.82–1.76). Participants were classified according to their heavy metal intake (above or below the respective medians). After further adjustment for potential confounding factors, no significant differences were found in all the measured parameters (p > 0.05). Conclusions: We did not find associations between bone health and the dietary intake of three heavy metals in postmenopausal women. Dietary intake of the measured heavy metals were within the recommended values.
