Notes:

• This study suggest that more vegetables = lower hip fracture risk. 
• And the effect seems to be dose dependent, meaning the higher the vegetables intake, the lower the hip fracture risk 
• The Singapore Chinese Health Study is a prospective population based cohort that enrolled 63,257 Chinese men and women aged 45-74 between 1993 and 1998 in Singapore..
• In this study, the authors described 2 dietary patterns - the vegetable-fruit-soy (VFS) & the meat-dim-sum (MDS) pattern amongst this group of Singapore Chinese men & women and studied the relationship of the different diets to hip fracture risk.
