Detailed Description:
Forty-five randomly assigned into one of three treatment groups: 1) 50g dried plum; 2) 100g dried plum; and 3) control (0g dried plum). All groups received 500mg calcium and 400 IU vitamin D as a daily supplement. Blood samples were collected at baseline, 3 and 6 months to assess biomarkers of bone turnover. Physical activity recall and 3-day food records were obtained at baseline, 3 and 6 months to examine physical activity and dietary confounders as potential covariates
