From: Dieting is associated with reduced bone mineral accrual in a longitudinal cohort of girls
Girls who first dieted by age 11 (‘Early dieters’) have lower bone mineral content (BMC) at age 15 y than those who first dieted between 11 and 15 years (‘Adolescent dieters’) or not at all (‘Non-dieters’). Values are mean ± 95% confidence interval, adjusted for height and BMI percentile at age 15y, BMC at 9y, breast Tanner score at 9y, and habitual physical activity at 9 y
