Objective: The relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) values and nutritional status as well as serum copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), selenium (Se) and manganese (Mn) levels in postmenopausal women has not been fully elucidated. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether there is a relationship between BMD values and nutritional status as well as serum Cu, Zn, Se and Mn levels by evaluating the nutritional status of postmenopausal women based on the BMD values using an objective index.
