Group 4 - Overweight, older adults (n = 150) * Special diets (i.e. ketogenic diet and time-restricted eating) * Diabetes, overt hypo/hyperthyroidism * Active anti-obesity treatment (e.g. GLP-1 analogues, polyagonists, naltrexone and bupropion) * Claustrophobia * drug abuse, alcohol \> 15 drinks/week * Metal implants that prohibit 3T MRI * No previous heart failure, cardiovascular disease, immunosuppressive therapies, chronic inflammatory diseases and active oncologic conditions up until the age of 35 years. * Life-threatening conditions with a life expectancy of less than 1 year or any other condition that would jeopardize proband safety/adherence while participating in this trial. Group 5 - "healthy" Nonagenerians Age ≥ 90 (n = 50) * Claustrophobia * Clinically significant cognitive impairment compromising study adherence * Metal implants that prohibit 3T MRI * Life-threatening conditions with a life expectancy of less than 1 year or any other condition that would jeopardize proband safety/adherence while participating in this trial.
