Sponsor's own description
Recent studies suggest that patients with heart failure (HF) may have a reduced ability to control the tone of their blood vessels, heart rate or blood pressure in response to stress. This study will test whether 16 weeks of protein supplements can improve control of blood pressure and heart rate in HF patients.
