There are 2 major factors known to contribute to osteoporosis - peak bone
mass during childhood and adolescence, and the rate of bone loss which
occurs during aging.

Researchers found that hypovitaminosis D - deficiency in vitamin D - in
adolescents has harmful effects on bone mineral growth, particularly at the
lumbar spine, during a period of development when peak bone mass should be
reached (1). They say that vitamin D supplements should be considered during
the pre-puberty and puberty years which are a crucial stage in preventing
osteoporosis later on in life.

Studies have found that intake of vitamin D from the diet is often not high
enough to maintain optimal vitamin D levels during the winter months for
many people(1). This points to the importance of making certain that your
child gets enough vitamin D in the winter. If you live in the United States,
you can be virtually certain that your child is not getting enough vitamin D
from the sun in the winter months.

To solve this problem, you can give them cod liver oil as it has the type of
vitamin D which can safely increase the vitamin D level to one that will
help build strong bones in your child's body.
