This study is looking at how adding a fiber supplement, Bob's Red Mill Potato Starch, to your diet might affect your gut health if you have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and Type 2 diabetes. Researchers want to see if this potato starch helps the bacteria in your gut make more short chain fatty acids, which they believe could be beneficial. You may be able to join if you are an adult with stable HFpEF (meaning your heart's pumping ability is over 50%) and Type 2 diabetes with well-controlled blood sugar (glycated hemoglobin under 10%). The study aims to enroll 30 participants and will measure changes in specific short chain fatty acids in your stool and blood after about 4 weeks.

Study design

This is an interventional study, meaning participants will receive a specific treatment. It plans to enroll 30 participants.

What's involved

You will consume Bob's Red Mill Potato Starch twice a day, starting with 10 grams for 7 days, then increasing to 20 grams for approximately 3 weeks. Stool and plasma samples will be collected at the beginning and after about 4 weeks.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Participants will be followed for approximately 4 weeks to measure changes in short chain fatty acid levels.
