High-fat diet for heart failure metabolism
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a high-fat diet can help change how your heart uses energy, potentially improving heart function in people with non-ischemic heart failure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have heart failure that is not caused by blocked arteries (non-ischemic cardiomyopathy).
- Your heart's pumping ability (ejection fraction) is 49% or less.
- You have been on stable heart failure medications for at least 3 months.
- You are willing to follow a high-fat diet as part of the study.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at fat around the heart in people with heart failure where the heart still pumps normally. It uses MRI scans to understand this fat better, and may help find new treatments.
This study looks at how metabolic changes, diet, and lifestyle patterns affect heart failure. It may help find ways to improve symptoms and health by targeting diet and daily habits.
This study compares a ketogenic (low-carb, high-fat) diet to a standard mixed diet in people with heart failure. It aims to see if the ketogenic diet can improve heart function and symptoms.
This trial uses advanced MRI scans to study early signs of heart failure in people whose heart pumps normally but who have risk factors like diabetes, high blood pressure, or obesity. It aims to improve detection and understanding of this condition.
This study looks at people who have heart failure symptoms but whose heart pumping strength is not reduced. Researchers aim to better understand this type of heart failure and compare it with people who have no history of heart disease or heart failure.
This study looks at people who have been newly diagnosed with heart failure to find rare forms of heart muscle disease (cardiomyopathy) early and start the right treatment. It uses advanced heart imaging (CMR) and requires that you have not had heart problems before.
