Heart failure is a common chronic disease with a poor prognosis that often ends in death. The research thus aims to thoroughly investigate ways in which the prognosis of heart failure could be improved. For this purpose, a 9-month study was conducted with a group of people who followed the Mediterranean diet, and the effects of this diet on the cardiovascular system and the state of the body as a whole were assessed. The study found that adherence to the principles of the Mediterranean diet improved the quality of life of patients, according to the quality-of-life questionnaire (the average score was 81.3 at the beginning of the study and 87 points at the end of the study), and the level of adherence to the Mediterranean diet in the study group increased from 30 points to 39.7, according to the MedDietScore (MDS) scale. There was also an improvement in appetite and sleep quality. A decrease in the average blood pressure in the group was recorded (from 140/95 to 137/88 mmHg). It was found that due to proper nutrition, the participant’s Body Mass Index (BMI) was reduced (from 31.2 kg/m2 to 29.6 kg/m2), and the percentage of overweight people in the study group was also reduced from 44% to 26%. It was noted that no deterioration in heart failure class or functional class was recorded during the study. The left ventricular ejection fraction remained unchanged.
