Milk Supplementation and Bone Health in Children
Effects of Yili Child Formula Milk on Bone Health in 4-6 Year Children: a 12-month Randomized Controlled Trial
Objectives: to examine the effects of a Yili child formula milk and regular milk on bone health and growth in young children.
Study design: cluster randomized controlled trial.
Setting: kindergartens in Hui-ning County of Gansu Province, China (north west).
Participants: >=246 apparent healthy children aged 4-6 years old.
Interventions:
(I) Yili child formula milk (QQ star formula, SCI-PRO NUTR5+6TM), 195 ml *2 /day; (II) Yili regular milk (pure milk), 195ml*2 /day; (III) Controls: about 50g/d grain foods (containing 20-30 g carbohydrates), e.g. bread.
Interventional Duration: 12 months.
Outcome measures: determined at 0, 6 and 12 months post treatments. Primary outcomes: bone density and bone mineral contents at the forearm and heel, bone biomarkers.
Secondary outcomes: (1) anthropometric indices: weight, height, waist circumference, etc.; (2) immune status.
Other measures: dietary intakes, physical activities, general information, medical information, adverse of side effects.
Data Analyses: The one-year changes and percent changes in the primary and secondary outcomes will be compared among the 3 groups.
