The National Osteoporosis Foundation recommends a daily intake of 1,200-1500mg of calcium 800-1,000 IUs of vitamin D for adults over the age of 50. The review article by Gehrig et al discusses the factors surrounding osteoporosis that can be modified to optimize fracture risk reduction. They report that non-prescription interventions such as calcium and vitamin D supplementation, fall prevention, hip protectors, and balance and exercise programs are treatment options.
