Mechanism of action of cocoa on bone metabolism in calcium- and estrogen- deficient rat model of osteoporosis: evidence for site and dose-related responses and involvement of IGF-I

Mechanism of action of cocoa on bone metabolism in calcium- and estrogen- deficient rat model of osteoporosis: evidence for site and dose-related responses and involvement of IGF-I
