Summary

This study tests whether eating 5-6 prunes daily for 18 months can prevent the rapid bone loss that often happens during menopause. Researchers will compare bone density, inflammation, and gut health in 124 women aged 44-55 who either eat prunes or avoid them. If successful, this simple diet change could help delay or avoid osteoporosis.
