IF ONLY!  We could all hope for the magic pill that would raise our EF.  The lower the EF, the more we would take.  How low is your EF and WHY did it get that low is where to start.  If it is because of rhythm problems, getting well synchronized can be helpful.  If it is because if a heart attack, taking an ACE inhibitor will be helpful in the long term.  Exercise helps.  Do your best with nutrition and do NOT smoke.  There is a spot to get started from.  Take care.

Your doctor certainly must have suggestions.  My EF was raised substantially by taking the drug Coreg and exercising.
