Vegetables, fruits, and spices have a pivotal role in maintaining the metabolism and have diversified health welfares. The food products have medicinal values (Medifood) and benefitted prophylactically and simultaneously; health experts recommend them due to their synergistic effect on medicine. Therefore, research thrusts have developed medifood and counted in the field of pharma-nutrition. Type II diabetes mellitus is one of the foremost progressive metabolic disorders, which affects several millions of people around the globe due to ignorance of food habits. Improvement in lifestyle and intake of habitual food may improve the diabetic conditions. In the present study, we performed in silico studies of fatty acids on the free fatty acid 1 receptor to identify fatty acids readily available in daily food content. Additionally, molecular dynamic simulation study to recognize the dynamic behavior of protein-fatty acid complex. The in silico results suggest that 04 fatty acids may be promising in which behenic acid was most potential and showed binding energy of − 110.857 kcal/mol. The stability of the protein–ligand complex is confirm in simulation studies, with occupancy of 95% and 84%, respectively. Behenic acid is present in different parts of the Moringa tree and may serve as medifood in type II diabetes mellitus.
