Time-Restricted Eating
for Obesity and Insulin Resistance
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to test the effect of time-restricted eating (14-hour fast, 10-hour eating window) of a low-energy dense diet (reduced calories per gram of food) in older adults with obesity and insulin resistance. The study aims to determine if modulating the energy density of the diet reduces: 1. Insulin resistance and 2. Body weight. Researchers will compare the groups: 1. Following time-restricted eating and given a diet reduced in energy density or 2. Following time-restricted eating and given a diet typically consumed in this population

Lifestyle Intervention
for Insulin Resistance
The primary objective of this study is to test the effect of a diet and exercise program in older adults with insulin resistance and a motivation disorder known as apathy. The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1. Does the diet and exercise program improve insulin resistance and apathy? 2. Does the addition of soybean to the diet enhance the effect? Participants will be given all meals for 12 weeks and will exercise under supervision. They will undergo a test of insulin sensitivity and complete questionnaires. Researchers will compare the groups given: 1. A diet to moderate the blood glucose response that contains soybean; and 2. A diet to moderate the blood glucose response that does not contain soybean.
