Yes, that is correct. Unfortunately, studies on Vitamin E have been conflicting, but I'd still bet it and other anti-oxidants have a place in preventing cancer. After all, it boosts immune function.
For preventing bone loss, I'd recommend 1200 mg of Calcium with Vitamin D a day. If the problem has deteriorated, Fosamax is a pretty decent drug.
