Editorial

We have previously announced that we have started working to publish a "Special Review Article Issue" every year in Records of Natural Products starting from this year. In this context, we are happy to have published our first Special Issue under the title "Lamiaceae Family: Phytochemistry, Pharmacology, Ethnopharmacology, Ethnobotany, Food and Clinical Application" with 7 wonderful review articles as the 2025 Special Issue of Records of Natural Products. Our authors who contributed to this issue shared their highly qualified and comprehensive studies on the ethnobotanical properties, ethnopharmacological uses, biological activities, phytochemical studies and applications in various fields of the Lamiaceae family with our readers. Each of them has already taken its place in the scientific literature as highly qualified studies that will support young researchers, scientists looking for new research areas and valuable scientists teaching in these fields at universities. We will continue this new application that we started to implement in 2025 in the coming years. In this regard, we would like to state that we are waiting for your suggestions on topics that are suitable for the scope of the Records of NAtural Products journal. Finally, we would like to thank all the authors who contributed to our journal in this issue and our referee board and editorial board members who took part in the work.  As we always say, our main purpose is to offer an unbiased research portal to the scientific world, natural products chemistry and pharmacognosy research, and we have never stepped back. And we will not. “This is your journal, support yourself”.
