Abstract
Description
- The present application claims priority and the benefit under 35 U. S.C. §119(e) to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 63/089,845 filed on Oct. 9, 2020, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- The present invention is directed to compounds for improving dermatological health. The present invention is also directed to methods for treatment of a disease or condition affecting the skin, as well as methods for formulating and administering a composition to address the same.
- The number of individuals suffering from or actively receiving treatment for skin-related disease has grown tremendously in the past 10 years. For example, recent studies have shown that approximately 85 million Americans are seen by a physician each year for treatment of skin disease. The estimated health care cost resulting from the same exceeds $75 billion. Presently, there are no fewer than 24 categories of skin disease recognized by the American Academy of Dermatology, including but not limited to acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, ichthyosis, vitiligo, hives and dermatitis. With increasing cases of skin cancer and an aging population, the mortality rate is approximately 50%.
- Accordingly, there is a long-felt but unresolved need to provide methods of treatment to address these and other problems related to skin-disease, which are the subject of the present disclosure.
- The invention in embodiments relates to a compound, particularly in the form of a dietary supplement, which addresses skin-related disease and overcomes the shortcomings in the art with respect to improved skin health. As disclosed in more detail in the Detailed Description, the present invention provides compositions and methods for treating a person with unhealthy or diseased skin. Methods for forming the compound described herein are also disclosed.
- Through experimentation it has been found that including various nutrients can be beneficial to people who have unhealthy skin or adverse dermatological conditions. In embodiments, a unique combination of the composition described herein is preferably administered orally in the form of a capsule, tablet, powder or lozenge. The unique combination has synergistic advantages over previously known compositions, all proportioned to provide the most benefit to people affected by the problems described above.
- The composition is preferably comprised of a unique and novel formulation in pre-determined amounts, and further provides benefits previously unexpected. In a preferred embodiment, the composition is comprised of D-Biotin, grape seed extract (Preferably French grape seed extract), superoxide dismutase (preferably from melon), zinc, Vitamin C, Lactobacillus Plantarum, Lactobacillus Reuteri, Lactobacillus Rhamnosus, or combinations/sub-combinations thereof.
- In another preferred embodiment, the composition comprises the following, with variability in dosages listed below:
- 1) D-Biotin—between about 1,000 mcg and about 3,000 mcg;

-
- a) Lactobacillus Plantarum;
- b) Lactobacillus Reuteri; and
- c) Lactobacillus Rhamnosus
- Certain of these components are described in greater detail below.
- D-Biotin
- D-biotin has an important role in overall health of an individual. D-Biotin been shown to help the body convert food into energy. In addition, it can boost hair and nails and helps manage blood sugar levels, among other benefits. D-Biotin has also been shown to have a positive impact if taken during pregnancy.
