Vitamin K2
Will this be the answer that I'm looking for? I remembered hearing somewhere that natto, the fermented bean dish that is a Japanese favorite, apparently has properties that can increase bone density. Not being sure if fermented beans would be to my liking, I did a web search to find out more about this and what in the beans made this happens. Turns out, it's believed to be Vitamin K2. I didn't know there was such a derivative, but sure enough, there is. Here is one of the better articles that I found: Vitamin K2 in bone metabolism and osteoporosis

I'll have to look into this further.
