In this paper we construct the interaction potential between the dense supernova core and neutrinos due to the exchange of light radions in the Randall-Sundrum scenario. We then show that the radion exchange potential affects the neutrino oscillation phenomenology inside the supernova significantly if the radion mass is less than around 1 GeV. In order that the Bethe-Wilson mechanism for heating the envelope and r-process neucleosynthesis be operative, the radion mass must be greater than 1 GeV. Bounds on the radion mass of the same order of magnitude can also be derived from TASSO and CLEO data on B decays.
