3426 Increased Monounsaturated Fat Consumption is Associated with Improved Body Composition in Subjects with Obesity and Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: We hypothesized that increasing percent calories from MUFA (%MUFA) would be associated an increased FFM/FM index. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Nine consecutive HFpEF patients with obesity participated in a 12-week pilot feasibility trial of UFA supplementation (NCT03310099).

Participants were given a list of items, corresponding serving sizes and asked to eat at least one serving of these UFA rich foods per day for 12 weeks.
