Case Study: Brenda Cook is a petite 54-year old Caucasian female. Brenda's 72-year old mother, Carla has developed a dowager's hump. Brenda's mother, Carla, recently was told that her x-rays showed several small stable vertebral fractures. Brenda also has an aunt Sally who is currently in the hospital for a hip fracture from a fall. Both relatives have been told that osteoporosis is the probable cause of their current medical issues. Brenda's health care provider has suggested that Brenda should have her risks for osteoporosis assessed. Brenda is not fond of milk or dairy products. She is glad that her kids are older now so that she doesn't have to keep milk in the house. Brenda has no other significant current medical history. You may suspect a diagnosis of osteoporosis.

Question: After confirmation of an osteoporosis diagnosis, explain specific patient education you will give this patient. Be specific to include diet education, specifically in relation to her new diagnosis. Provide cited rationales to support your answers.
