MAQUIBRIGHT®
MaquiBright® is the only standardized maqui berry extract (Aristotelia chilensis) rich in purified flavonoids—25% delphinidins and 35% of total anthocyanins-.
Studies show its unique delphinidin-glucosides, found mainly in Chilean maqui berry, are absorbed into tear glands, helping reduce oxidative stress inside cells and hence to naturally restore tear fluid generation.
In pre-clinical studies MaquiBright® was proven to be superior to other berry extracts for restoration of healthy tear fluid secretion. Bilberry extract displayed only 30% of the efficacy of MaquiBright® and black currant extract only 21%, respectively [Nakumara et al., 2014].
