The purpose of this study is to determine if a specific form of Vitamin B known as pyridoxamine helps improve bone strength over one year in women (65 yrs old) with Type 2 Diabetes. We know that people with type 2 diabetes have the lower bone material strength and we suspect this is due to high levels of circulating sugars that build up over time (known as Advanced Glycation End products). We will study whether using a specific form of vitamin B, known as pyridoxamine helps improve bone strength and reduce levels of circulating sugars over a one-year time period.
