N-Benzyloleamide is a natural compound found in a variety of plants such as Tropaeolum tuberosum tubers and Lepidium meyenii (Maca). N-Benzyloleamide has been shown to have anti-inflammatory activity with IC50 values of 6.50±0.75 μM, 7.74±0.19 μM, and 8.37±0.09 μM in CCD-1109Sk, MRC-5, and RWPE-1 cell lines, respectively^[1].  In addition, it has been shown to have a concentration-dependent inhibitory effect on fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), an enzyme responsible for the degradation of endogenous cannabinoids in the nervous system^[2].

N-Benzyloctadecenamide is a natural product[1].
