Data suggest a beneficial relationship between dietary sources of lycopene and elevated plasma/serum concentrations of lycopene and bone health as measured by bone mass and markers of bone metabolism. Reducing oxidative stress is purported as a possible mechanism in managing cellular processes supporting bone health.
