Thanks for the question. Always consult with your doctor before beginning a new diet. You can go to our osteoporosis prevention page for tips on an osteoporosis-fighting diet. For even more information, the University of Nebraska offers a somewhat-dated newsletter dedicated to "nutrition and osteopororis."
I'm not sure what you mean when you ask "how is it measured," but I hope this helps.
