bone-health

2 articles

Bone health refers to the structural integrity and mineral density of the skeletal system, which depends heavily on dietary compounds including those derived from plants. Plant-based bioactive compounds such as phytoestrogens, polyphenols, flavonoids, and minerals found in fruits, leaves, and roots have been studied for their potential to influence bone metabolism, reduce bone loss, and support skeletal strength. Understanding how plant-derived nutrients and secondary metabolites interact with bone remodeling pathways is an active area of nutritional plant science research.
