How to cure Food Poisoning in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Having the Food Poisoning debuff in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is quite a headache, slowly draining your health until you either find a cure or inevitably die. Here is how to cure Food Poisoning in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 as well as how to prevent it.

How to cure Food Poisoning

You can cure Food Poisoning by consumi💧ng a Digestive Potion. This one-time-use consumable will cure Food Poisoning entirely, deꦿcrease your Nourishment by 20, and increase your Vitality stat by one for 10 minutes. Consuming the Digestive Potion will immediately remove the Food Poisoning debuff, so the faster you get one in you, the less damage Food Poisoning will do.

There are several ways to obtain a Digestive Potion. If you have been leveling your Alchemy, you can eventually 🌊learn to brew your own Digestive P🦋otion at an Alchemy Bench. However, until you do, you can also purchase them from an Apothecary. The standard going rate for a Digestive Potion is about 22 Groschen.

The only other way to remove or cure Food Poisoning is to simply let it run its course, which takes about five minutes. Unfortunately, you’ll be losing health frequently during that time. This means you’ll need to have ways to keep restoring your health, like consuming multiple Health Potions, until eventually the Food Poisoning expires.

How to prevent Food Poisoning

You get the Food Poisoning debuff by eating food that is no longer fresh in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. if you select any consumable item in your inventory, you’ll see that it has a Freshness rating ranging 0%-100%. The higher the Freshness, the better the food will satiate your appetite. If the food has reached a Freshness of 0%, this means you will receive Food Poisoning when eating it.

As such, you should never consume food that has expired and has a Freshness rating of 0%. Make sure you’re always getting new and fresh food, and keep in mind that some foods will expire much faster. A good rule of thumb is to only buy or gather food that will last you for a day or so in game, as past that, it’s much more likely the food will have expired and no longer be fresh.
