Hello,

I have studied your case.

For osteomalacia treatment you need calcium and vit D.
Vit D3 is important for bone maintenance; low level can cause weakness of vertebral architecture along with all other bones.
For low level of vitD you need supplement or vit D injection.
Vit D deficiency is very common worldwide in spite of exposure to sunlight.

You can take high protein, and vitamin diet,
Avoid fatty, oily, junk food.
Drink 4 to 5 little water daily.

For example Breakfast options (7 - 8:30 p.m.): a. 1 slice of toasted bread with a glass of tomatoes, carrot and a pinch of lime juice put in a blender b. A bowl of fresh fruits Lunch options (1 - 2:30 p.m.): a. 2 bread with one whole tomato cut into slices, with green leafy vegetable and bowl of vegetables (salad) Dinner (6 - 7:30 p.m.; not later): a. one bread with a bowl of vegetable

Diet that should help you to reduce your cholesterol levels, but I need you to understand that this needs to be done gradually and so, start gradually and then lower your calories.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
