If educationg the patients is the intention, I would show them a healthy bone and an osteoporotic bone, rather than 2 pieces of cocolates, unless I am pressed for publicaions for my degree. Good thing they didn't compare a Hershey chocolate - their lawyers are looking for anything to relate to them for suing these days.

The chocolate bars would definitely have melted under those conditions. Thanks for the catch (the degree symbol became a 0 when we copy/pasted) – it’s fixed now.

Not likely! I think you'll find it's 22 degrees C. 220C? Not likely! I think you’ll find it’s 22 degrees C.
