Getting Started
Nourished adds a five-group nutrition system to Minecraft. Eat a variety of foods to stay balanced and earn passive buffs — let any group drop too low and you'll start feeling the effects.
| Minecraft | 1.21.1 |
| Mod Loader | NeoForge 21.1.x |
| MarieLib | 1.0.0+ (separate install, required) |
| Recommended | Cloth Config, Patchouli |
- Download the latest Nourished and MarieLib releases from Modrinth
- Place both jars in your
mods/folder - Launch the game — Nourished will generate its config files on first run
No additional setup is required. Nourished automatically classifies food from installed mods through MarieLib's scanner.
Nourished tracks five food groups:
| Group | Neglect Penalty | Balance Buff |
|---|---|---|
| 🌾 Grains | Weakness I | ✓ |
| 🥦 Vegetables | Slowness I | ✓ |
| 🥩 Proteins | Mining Fatigue I | ✓ |
| 🍎 Fruits | Unluck I | ✓ |
| 🥛 Dairy | — | ✓ |
Balance buff: When all five groups are above 75%, you gain Health Boost I and Regeneration I passively.
Neglect penalty: When any penalized group drops below 25%, the corresponding debuff applies until you eat enough of that group to recover.
Dairy has no neglect penalty but still counts toward the balance buff.
Five color-coded bars appear on your screen while you play. Press H to enter edit mode: drag the HUD anywhere, resize it, and anchor it to any corner.
See HUD & Display for all customization options.
Open your inventory and click the Nourished icon for a full nutrition overview: trend arrows, balance score, active effects, calorie tracking, recently eaten foods, and neglected categories.
If a mod adds food with FoodProperties, Nourished handles it automatically through MarieLib's classification — no config files to write. For foods that aren't classified correctly, use Datapack Support or Community Tags.
Recipe inheritance allows complex foods to inherit nutrients from their ingredients — a hamburger may contribute grains, proteins, vegetables, and dairy depending on its recipe.
If updating from an earlier 0.2.x version:
- Close Minecraft
- Delete
config/nourished/scanner_spec.json - Launch the game and load your world
- Run
/nourished invalidatecache - Leave and rejoin the world
This forces Nourished to rebuild its food classification cache and scanner data.
