Brief Summary: The aim of TIMEDIAB is to demonstrate that early TRE (eTRE) combined to late (afternoon) exercise will outperform eTRE combined to morning exercise on muscle function as primary endpoint, and glucose homeostasis as secondary endpoint
Detailed Description: Overweight, obesity, aging and menopause are all independent risk factors in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Older women with T2DM are at especially high risk for sarcopenia, i.e. loss of skeletal muscle mass and force, and cardiovascular diseases. The first line of T2DM treatment is based on lifestyle changes including weight loss and physical activity. One major current medical challenge is to find novel lifestyle therapies able to reduce cardiometabolic risk while perserving muscle mass in obese older individuals. As a result, intermittent fasting approaches, including time-restricted feeding/eating (TRF/TRE), have been offered as alternative dietary strategies that may have beneficial effects on weight control and T2DM. It has been recently observed that long-term TRF improve glucose homeostasis while perserving muscle mass and force in female obese mice. The purpose of TIMEDIAB is to demonstrate that early TRE (eTRE) combined to late (afternoon) exercise will outperform eTRE combined to morning exercise on various components of muscle health as primary endpoint, and blood glucose control, body composition, energy balance, cardiovascular risk, and metabolic health as secondary endpoints. This study will pave the way to larger scale randomized clinical trials investigating the long-term effects/benefits of such intervention and in other target populations.
