Inclusion criteria

Subjects will be men and women between the ages of 50 and 70 yrs of age, with a BMI of 27 to 37 kg/m2 and at least 12 yrs of education.
All subjects will be medically stable (i.e. no uncontrolled or poorly controlled medical illnesses), cognitively-intact as defined by Mini Mental Status Exam (MMSE) score of > 27, and will have adequate visual and auditory acuity to allow for cognitive testing.
Metabolic function will be determined as impaired fasting glucose 100-125 mg/dL and/or impaired 2-hr glucose concentration 140-199 and <200mg/dL on 75-g oral glucose challenge.
Also, half of all subjects will have a family history of dementia.

Exclusion criteria

Diagnosis of possible or probable AD, MCI, or any other dementia; evidence of cognitive decline by MMSE score of <27 or self-reported significant decline in memory within the past year (per the Memory Function Questionnaire) (MFQ)
History of Type I or Type II diabetes, or fasting plasma glucose > 126 mg/dL
History of significant CVD or myocardial infarction; unstable cerebrovascular or pulmonary disease, gallstones, pancreatitis or cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) untreated hypothyroidism, unstable or untreated hypertension, anemia as determined by hematocrit < 30%
Abnormal renal clearance as determined by the serum creatinine ³ 1.5 mg/d, hepatic dysfunction as determined by ALT > 2 times the upper limit of normal
Presence of medications known to affect insulin action or insulin secretion
Premature birth (which may affect MRI findings), history of neurological disorder (ischemic attacks, carotid bruits, or lacunes upon MRI scan), or evidence of neurologic or other physical illness that could produce cognitive deterioration; use of any drug that may significantly affect the OGTT results or cognitive testing results (specifically: cs)
Drug or alcohol abuse or dependence within the past 6 months, positive urine toxicology screen for illicit substances at eligibility screening, history of mental illness, with the exception of past mood disorder, or evidence of acute depression as determined by a 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS-17) score of 8 or more.
Participants with history of mood disorder must be in remission for at least 6 months prior to study entry.
