Cardiomyopathy describes any disease of the heart muscle that causes a reduction in the force of heart muscle
contraction (e.g., congestive heart failure, cardiac arrhythmias, and angina).

variety of cardiomyopathies. However, these patients are often on medications for their condition and the at ending
physician must be made aware of any additional supplementation program targeted at cardiac function.5-11
