From the Editors Desk:

Be sure to check out my story about the BOD POD, nothing more humbling than wearing speedos in front of 10,000 ADA members. Click here to learn more. 

We are opening up the SnoreQuell study this week. After spending 7 days in the room next to Steve Freed, our publisher, and not hearing him snore all night, I am convinced this works. If your patients, you or anyone you live with snores, sign up for this study. 

We had some exclusive interviews at the ADA and ENDO conferences and will have those for you starting next week.  

Dr Rosen brings us “Looking For Lipid In All The Wrong Places”. Learn how lipids end up in all the wrong places. 

Check out 2 new studies that have just opened:  Patient Passouts and SnoreQuell
