    People with heart failure need to consume an appropriate amount of minerals. Urinary magnesium excretion in patients with heart failure increases, and the decrease in magnesium concentration further aggravates the condition and induces digitalis poisoning, so it is necessary to increase magnesium intake. In addition, pay attention to calcium supplementation and limit sodium intake.
