The following model health claims can be used in the food labeling to illustrate the association between vitamin D, calcium, and osteoporosis:

1. Sufficient vitamin D and calcium throughout life, as a component of a well-balanced diet, may minimize the threat of osteoporosis.

2. Sufficient calcium and vitamin D as a component of a healthful diet, alongside physical activity, may minimize the threat of osteoporosis in the later stages. Thus, the given statement is True.
