Summary

This is a study of the DASH diet (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) in the exploration of effective strategies for Heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF) prevention.

Detailed description

This is a feasibility pilot, randomized clinical trial (RCT), DASH diet feeding trial in 40 older adults. It will also elicit trends in left ventricular remodeling and pathophysiology. This trial investigates the feasibility of performing a DASH diet RCT intervention in HFPEF prevention in older adults of low socioeconomic status (LSES).

Conditions

• Heart Failure
• Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
