Summary

This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effect of a ketogenic diet and/or exogenous administration of ketone bodies vs conventional diet on the ejection fraction of patients with non-ischemic chronic heart failure, measuring MRI biomarkers.

Conditions

  • Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction
  • Ketosis

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Ketogenic diet

A diet with \<50gr of carbohydrates per day. Monosaturated fats consumption will encourage over saturated fats

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Exogenous ketones

Administration of ketone monoester 25 ml t.i.d

BEHAVIORAL

Standard diet + placebo

A standard diet incorporating current recommendations (low in sodium and low in liquids) for heart failure patients.
