Summary

Effect of high calorie high protein diet versus high calorie,glomerular filtration rate (GFR) based protein intake in non-obese advanced HF patients will be assessed. In this regard, protein intake impact will be measured on muscle mass, physical performance and renal function as main outcome. Rehospitalization, quality of life, depression an inflammatory status are second endpoints.

Conditions

  • Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction
  • Renal Insufficiency

Interventions

OTHER

protein intake

For each participant, weighed food records of 3 consecutive days will be analyzed for estimation of calorie and macronutrient intake and dietary preferences. To make sure good compliance, diets will be developed regarding patient's dietary habits and preferences individually. High calorie (30-35 kcal/kg Ideal body weight) diets including 6-8 small meals will be formulated. Intervention group will receive high protein diet as recommended to preserve muscle mass (1.2-1.5 g/kg IBW). Comparison group will receive protein based on GFR to preserve renal function. For older adults (\>65 years) protein content of diet will be as recommended by the international study group to review dietary protein needs with aging (PROT-AGE). In subjects with lower intake of protein, carbohydrate will be substituted. Both group will receive low fat diet.
