Uses of an orally administered formulation containing anthocyanins and pterostilbenes from blueberry extract, omega-3 fatty acids, lactoferrin, vitamins a and e and excipients with surfactant properties, for primary treatment and/or as an adjuvant for dry eye syndrome in human beings

Abstract

The invention relates to the use of a formulation containing anthocyanins and pterostilbenes from blueberry extract (Vaccinium myrtillus L), omega-3 fatty acids, lactoferrin, vitamins A and E and excipients with surfactant properties, for primary treatment and/or as an adjuvant for dry eye syndrome in human beings. In order to overcome the negative aspects of administering the formulation individually and to provide synergistic effects, the invention is characterized by the design of a formulation containing, among other components, polyphenols from blueberry extract, without eliminating the matrix, which promotes the bioactivity of the polyphenols present in same, as there is evidence that the presence of other polyphenols increases the bioavailability and bioactivity thereof. In addition, other elements of the matrix promote stability and absorption of polyphenols.
