Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To determine if physical activity engagement alters the dose-response profile and safety of administration of insulin into the intranasal mucosa.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Using a randomized placebo controlled double-blind pre-posttest design, participants will be randomly assigned to receive a dose of either 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, or 120 IU of NovoLog insulin aspart prior to being randomized into participating in a 20 minute session of either moderate-intensity aerobic exercise or a passive control condition. The efficacy of the intranasal insulin for inducing alterations in cognition will be assessed using both behavioral and neuroelectric measures. The safety of the protocol will be assessed using a symptom questionnaire assessing common symptoms of altered blood glucose and common side effects of intranasal insulin.
