Abstract: A new pharmaceutical composition consisting of an oral aqueous suspension for the prevention and treatment of gastric ulcers and colon cancer is disclosed, as well as the procedure for preparing it. This suspension is characterized by containing a purified extract with fatty alcohols from beeswax, microcrystalline cellulose and excipients accepted by the pharmaceutical industry. The method of preparing this suspension is characterized in that the fatty alcohol extract is subjected to a process of particle size reduction to <1.5 micrometers in the presence of an emulsifying agent at >1000 rpm; the mixture of said active ingredient with microcrystalline cellulose in the proportion and concentration in which they are formulated, makes these components act synergistically, conferring powerful antiulcer and chemoprotective effects to this composition.

Abstract: This invention is related to the obtainment of a new active ingredient and its obtaining process from green or ripe fruits of both Acrocomia crispa and Acrocomia aculeata species of the Arecaceae family. Such active ingredient can be used as nutritional supplement, cosmetic-therapeutic formulations, or as pharmaceutical compositions for preventing and/or treating inflammatory processes and oxidative stress, and includes a mixture of fatty acids from 6 to 28 carbon atoms (free and/or as acylglycerols or ethyl esters), mainly those saturated of linear chain with 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18 carbon atoms, and those unsaturated of 16 and 18 carbon atoms, and that may also contain sterols and fatty alcohols.
