Overview

Meta-analysis shows exercise improves bone metabolism in postmenopausal women, suggesting effective prevention of osteoporosis.

Key Points

  • Exercise significantly increases alkaline phosphatase, promoting bone formation in postmenopausal women.
  • A meta-analysis of 24 studies found exercise decreases parathyroid hormone levels, indicating reduced bone resorption.
  • Both aerobic and resistance exercise improve bone health, with specific benefits observed in short-term interventions.
  • High-quality randomized controlled trials are needed to further validate the effectiveness of exercise on bone metabolism.
