“…Epidemiologic studies have shown a positive association between BMD and the intake of n–3 PUFA in older adults [12] and healthy young men [15] or the intake of fish in postmenopausal women [11,22,23] and the elderly [24,25]. Hogstrom et al [15] reported that serum phospholipid levels of DHA and the ratio of n–3/n–6 PUFA were positively correlated with BMD in 78 healthy men with an average age of 22 years.…”

Background: Osteoporosis, a major health problem among postmenopausal women, is influenced by dietary factors. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the hypothesis that erythrocyte levels of n–3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) and the dietary intake of fish are associated with risk of osteoporosis and correlate with bone mass in postmenopausal Korean women with the disease. Methods: Fifty cases and 100 controls were recruited. Osteoporosis was defined according to the International Society for Clinical Densitometry guideline as a score lower than –2.5 SD below the T-score for lumbar vertebrae L₁–L₄, femoral neck or femoral total. Results: The T-score of the femoral neck was positively correlated with erythrocyte levels of n–3 PUFA, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and the intake of fish, and was negatively correlated with the ratio of n–6/n–3 PUFA after adjusting for age, years after menopause and height. In addition, the risk of osteoporosis was positively associated with erythrocyte levels of saturated fatty acids but negatively associated with EPA + DHA. Conclusions: Erythrocyte levels of n–3 PUFA and the intake of fish were positively correlated with bone mass. In particular, erythrocyte levels of EPA + DHA reduced the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal Korean women.

Life on earth is threatened both by environmental pollution and overpopulation. Natural phenomena contributing to pollution have always existed but anthropogenic activities are increasing contamination of air, soil and water. Waters are especially polluted by metals. The main threats to life from toxic metals are associated with exposure to Pb, Cd, Hg and As, which accumulate in organisms. Overpopulation means more food is required but the amount of arable land is declining

“…Certain nutrients reported to be deficient in patients with MDD are required in the maintenance of good bone health. A large study of 5,848 men and 6,207 women found increasing seafood consumption to be significantly associated with greater BMD in women [125]. Dietary magnesium intake has also been shown to contribute to the maintenance of BMD in both population-based studies [126] and clinical trials [127, 128].…”

Background: There are data to suggest low bone mineral density is disproportionately prevalent among those with psychiatric disorders. This paper aims to review the current evidence on the relationship between depression and bone mineral density, and identify potential mechanisms. Methods: Relevant sources were identified from the Pubmed and Web of Science (ISI) databases from the first relevant publication in 1994 to the present, 2007, using a combination of key words and terms including depression, major depressive disorder, osteoporosis, bone mineral density, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, cortisol, cytokines, leptin, antidepressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, smoking, alcohol, physical activity and diet. Reference lists of chosen articles were further reviewed for associated publications. Results: The possible association between psychiatric illness, in particular depression, and osteoporosis has been the subject of a growing body of research yielding various findings, although most identify some effect on bone. In addition to medication-related processes and/or modifiable lifestyle factors associated with mood disturbances, endocrine and immune alteration secondary to depression may play a pathogenetic role in bone metabolism. Conclusions: Additional longitudinal studies, with the advantage of temporal sequencing, remain to be conducted, as well as research into potential mechanisms surrounding the association. Nevertheless, the current findings are of clinical relevance, given the health burden of both depression and osteoporosis.
