Abstract

Editorial. In the modern and contemporary world, the incidence of obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type II diabetes is rising continuously due to modernization in life style and dietary habits. Herbal medicines have been shown to be beneficial against coexistence of these ailments. In 2013, we published a special issue on "Natural products for the treatment of obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes" in EvidenceBased Complementary and Alternative Medicine (eCAM). After receiving an overwhelming number of submissions and successful compilation of research/review articles in the first season, the decision to publish annual special issue on this subject has been made by eCAM. Herein we present the 2014 issue in this series. This special issue consists of 5 original research papers and 4 review articles.
