Make no bones about it – you need protein in addition to calcium and vitamin D for strong and healthy bones.
Bone is made up of calcium, other minerals and protein, a nutrient that is necessary for building and repairing body tissues, including bones.

It gives bone its strength and flexibility and is also the big component of muscles, which are, of course, crucial for mobility and in preventing falls.
