A '''Heart Boost''' is a power-up item that appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', its [[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D|Nintendo 3DS port]], its [[Donkey Kong Country Returns HD|Nintendo Switch port]], and ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. When equipped, it serves as additional [[Heart (item)|heart]] for the player's health. The heart has a white plus in the middle. Heart Boosts can be bought for ten [[Banana Coin]]s from [[Cranky Kong's Shop]] in ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' and [[Funky's Fly 'n' Buy]] in ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze''.

When player takes damage, they lose the heart of a Heart Boost before their normal hearts. If this happens they can regain the heart through any means that recovers a regular heart. This is unlike the [[Banana Juice]] item, whose ability to block damage cannot be replenished. The game prioritizes restoring normal hearts before those of a Heart Boost. As with all inventory items, the Heart Boost's effect wears off if the player leaves the level. Losing a [[Extra life|life]] does not cause the player to lose a Heart Boost, also unlike the Banana Juice.
