Effect of a Sodium-Restricted Diet on Intake of Other Nutrients in Heart Failure: Implications for Research and Clinical Practice
Abstract Background Sodium restriction is the primary dietary therapy for heart failure (HF) patients. Currently, it is unknown if changing diets to reduce dietary sodium in HF causes secondary changes to the intake of other nutrients in this patient population already at nutritional risk. Methods a...

Zusammenfassung: | Abstract Background Sodium restriction is the primary dietary therapy for heart failure (HF) patients. Currently, it is unknown if changing diets to reduce dietary sodium in HF causes secondary changes to the intake of other nutrients in this patient population already at nutritional risk. Methods and Results HF patients (n = 16; 52 ± 12 years old; 78% male) followed a sodium-restricted diet for 1 week. Nutritional changes were documented at baseline and after a |
