Measure
Probiotic Group
Participants received a daily capsule containing Lactobacillus acidophilus UALa-01™ (1×10⁹ CFU) for 12 weeks to evaluate its effect on postmenopausal osteoporosis.
Placebo Group
Participants received a daily placebo capsule containing maize starch and maltodextrins for 12 weeks as a control for evaluating the probiotic intervention.

Measure
Probiotic Group
n=32 Participants
The probiotic group will receive a supplement diet capsule consisting of Lactobacillus acidophilus UALa-01™ with a dose of 1x10\^9 CFU for 12 weeks Probiotic group: The probiotic gorup is focused on the treatment of postmenopause osteoporosis women with a capsule cointained 1x10\^9 CFU of Lactobacillus acidophilus UALa-01™/day (30 people)
Placebo Group
n=32 Participants
The placebo group will receive a capsule that consists of the excipient (maize starch and maltodextrins) for 12 weeks Placebo group: The group is assigned on the treatment of postmenopause osteoporosis women without probiotic intervention (30 people)
