Feasibility of Implementing Time-restricted Eating in Women With Mild Cognitive Impairment

Description

This study will investigate the feasibility of implementing a time-restricted eating intervention in females with mild cognitive impairment. Targeted therapeutic interventions that improve cognitive impairment and delay onset of ADRD are particularly important for females, who have twice the lifetime risk of developing AD, compared to males.
