Avoid calcium supplements, try to ensure your vitamin D levels are decent.

Of course, MDA is nearly always a good source: http://www.marksdailyapple.com/calcium-for-women/

My dad has really bad osteoporosis. He eats a lot of hard cheese, whole grain bread, high sodium, no nuts, drank milk every day of his life until recently, lots of sweets, processed food, and almost never has skin exposed to sunshine.
