Summary

This trial will study how a time-restricted eating plan affects women with mild memory problems. It may help prevent Alzheimer's, which affects women twice as much as men.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for postmenopausal women aged between 45-95 who have been diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment. It aims to explore a dietary intervention that could potentially improve their condition.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the feasibility of time-restricted eating as an intervention to see if it can help manage or improve mild cognitive impairment in women.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves a dietary change rather than medication, side effects may include hunger, changes in energy levels, or potential impact on social and daily routines.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Time-restricted eatingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will have baseline and post-study data collected, including activity/sleep data, metabolic parameters (fasting labs and anthropometric measurements), and cognitive testing. In addition, food timing will be collected throughout the study. Subjects will be educated about the potential health benefits of time-restricted eating and will self-select a 10-hr window, during which all daily calories will be consumed for 8 weeks.
