How to Balance Your Nutrition and Hydration Stats

Botanical Harvest Pro Mod replaces single-food diets with an eight-stat nutrition system. Keeping your character healthy requires eating a variety of ingredients rather than relying on one crop or meat source.

Understanding the Eight Nutrient Meters

Your body tracks eight separate dietary stats during survival play:

• Protein and Carbs: Gained by eating meats, baked goods, and hearty dishes.
• Vitamins and Minerals: Restored through fresh fruits, leafy greens, and wild plant harvests.
• Fats and Fiber: Maintained by consuming grains and wholesome cooking ingredients.
• Calories and Hydration: Kept stable by eating complete meals and drinking prepared beverages.

Building a Balanced Diet

1. Harvest diverse ingredients: Collect wild plants, fruits, and crops while exploring different biomes rather than farming a single food source.

2. Process your ingredients: Raw items alone will not efficiently cover every meter. Combine your gathered crops, grains, and meats at a standard crafting table or inside specialized kitchen blocks to cook complete meals.

3. Rotate your meals: Watch your nutrition meters and switch between hearty meat dishes, grain-based baked goods, and fresh plant dishes depending on which stats are currently low.

4. Stay hydrated: Solid food alone will not cover all your needs. Use the juicer block to turn fresh fruits into drinks so your hydration meter stays full alongside your calorie count.
