FSU study: Can prunes reverse bone loss after menopause?

, the study coordinator; and master's degree students Raz Saadat and Kellie Adkins.

"Given its rapidly growing and aging population, the state of Florida has been an ideal location for this research," said Arjmandi. Further studies are in the works. "Currently, my colleagues and I are preparing a major proposal for the National Institutes of Health that exceeds $1.5 million, which would enable a longer, more extensive dried plum investigation in both male and female animal models of osteoporosis."

During the past year, the FSU College of Human Sciences and its nutrition, food and exercise sciences department have markedly expanded clinical research into the effects of specific nutrients on key markers of postmenopausal health. In addition to Arjmandi's study, FSU Professor Jasminka Ilich is leading the largest, longest study to-date on the efficacy of calcium through dairy products, supplements or both for weight reduction and bone preservation in overweight or obese postmenopausal Caucasian women.
