There are a myriad of structural and biochemical abnormalities associated with the failing heart, yet the hallmark of this syndrome is the inability to effectively transfer the chemical energy from foodstuffs to the mechanical energy of left ventricular ejection against aortic pressure. The causes and consequences of dysfunctional energy metabolism in heart failure are poorly understood; nevertheless, there is growing evidence to suggest that alterations
