Abstract
El término “Síndrome Metabólico” (SM) se utiliza para definir una combinación de patologías en una misma persona (diabetes tipo 2, obesidad, dislipemia, hipertensión arterial). Existen diferentes criterios para definir este síndrome, utilizándose en España el del US National Cholesterol Education Program. Los objetivos de este trabajo fueron conocer los criterios de definición, y recopilar las alternativas terapéuticas naturales para la prevención y tratamiento del SM. Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica de artículos científicos sobre el SM así como sobre plantas o productos naturales para su tratamiento o prevención, obtenidos de diversas bases científicas. Se ha constatado que existen alternativas naturales eficaces junto al tratamiento farmacológico convencional para el SM, pero ninguna terapia es efectiva si no va acompañada de una serie de cambios en el estilo de vida.
