Is it true that too much protein (supposedly what the West typically consumes) causes acidity in the body to the point where calcium is leached out of bones in order to stabilize that blood acidity - resulting in osteoporosis even with the increased dairy intake, which is why in underdeveloped countries/or cultures who don't consume hardly any dairy products/meat products do not get osteoporosis etc...
