There appears to be little benefit of increasing protein intake for bone health in healthy adults but there is also clearly no indication of any detrimental effect , at least within the protein intakes of the population s studied ( around 0.8–1.3 g/Kg/day ) .
We undertook a systematic review and meta- analysis of published papers assessing  dietary protein and bone health .

Milk Basic Protein (MBP) Increases Radial Bone Mineral Density in Healthy Adult Women
We studied the effects of daily intake of milk basic protein ( MBP ) on radial bone mineral density ( BMD ) in healthy adult women . Thirty-three healthy women were r and omly assigned to a 6-month trial with either placebo or MBP ( 40 mg per day ) . The radial BMD of each volunteer was measured at the beginning of and at six months after the trial . The mean BMD value at the 6th month in the MBP group increased significantly at both 1/6 and 1/10 portion from the distal end of the radius , whereas that in the control group did not . The BMD gain of each volunteer in the MBP group was significantly higher than that in the placebo group . Thus a daily MBP supplementation of 40 mg in healthy adult women can significantly increase radial BMD
