Detailed description

The aims of this study are to explore efficacy and safety of calcium from fish bone in volunteers with osteopenia. The volunteers are divided into 2 groups which are calcium from fish bone treatment group and calcium carbonate treatment group. Both groups received the calciums everyday for 6 months. Bone mineral density is analyzed before and after treatment. Osteocalcin, total procollagen type-1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP), beta-crosslaps, parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcium, phosphate level, vitamin D level (Serum 25(OH)D), albumin, aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), creatinine (Cr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and complete blood count (CBC) are assessed before and after taking for 3 and 6 months. Physical performance and food diary are also tested and records. Moreover, adverse effects including skin allergy, gastrointestinal abnormality, respiratory abnormality are evaluated. Satisfaction is asked after treatment.
