Interesting article. So T2s have low levels of ostecalcin, and it is thought that raising them might resolve the diabetes. My concern is that by injecting osteocalcin, one problem is solved while another one is created. What if falling osteocalcin levels is part of a natural defense mechanism?

So when can I have my dose of osteocalcin :D :D :D

Can I sign up for the human trials?? :D Heck...can I sign up for the monkey trials? :D :D :D

Me too! Is osteocalcin available in the health food store? LOL. Just call me "Chimpanzee 1" and I'll jump up and down for a banana and my osteocalcin! Hehehe.

Given a choice between a shot and surgery I think I would prefer the shot.

I am really skeptical of the weight loss surgery.
