What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: dairy milk, pea-based beverage, almond-based beverage
What this could lead to: If it works, this could show which type of milk or plant drink best supports bone strength when combined with exercise, helping prevent fractures.
What could go wrong: This is an early-stage study with 150 people, so results may not apply to everyone. Differences between drinks may be small, and bone changes take time to show.
