    No, the heart cannot repair itself. Heart tissue does not regenerate nor regains it's strength. It can compensate the damage for a period of time but that's it. These days medications can help with most cardiac disorders and can shift the Starlings Curve (it measures how efficiently the heart works) to accomodate a normal Cardiac output. Excercise does help in keeping the heart from getting worse.

    Heart Failure or Congestive Heart Failure is a disease in which the heart muscle weakens and as a result hinders the ability of the heart to efficiently pump blood. In some cases, this weakening can be caused as a result of a heart attack, but in many cases the coronary arteries are normal.

    Don't listen to morons who have no faith in herbs, but continue to expound on the use of drugs. Doctors know that herbs will save your life and drugs don't do anything, but with the pharmacuetical companies spending billions on drugs you would have to go somewhere other than China to cure yourself usually. But, fortunately there is help here in California and people from all over the world shop here to get herbs to cure themselves. See source below.
