Most important minerals stored in bones are?

The bone marrow and the bone itself stores and also looses minerals. That is why calcium and other minerals and vitamins are so crucial for bone health. A person with osteoporosis suffers from their bones failing to rebuild osteoclast (I hope that is the right word.) and from losing too much calcium. Their bones also fail to absorb vitamins and minerals. There bones get thinner and thinner. In advanced stages you can see right through their bones on x-rays and some of them have holes in their bones.
