📋 About This Mod
!(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/23ee1c51fc7b5b7952fd2800754279429f3a69d9_0.webp)
> I got sick of Minecraft's food system, so I built Nourished, a nutrition mod for NeoForge 1. 21. 1 that tracks five food groups, rewards a varied diet, and applies balance buffs and neglect penalties when you neglect them.
- Eat a balanced diet, watch your bars on the HUD, open the diet screen for the full picture, and tune every module for your server or modpack.
💾 Interfaces
Mini Hud

> Press Key-Bind in-game to enter edit mode. Drag it anywhere, resize it, anchor it to any corner. Zero bars hide automatically so it never feels cluttered. Five color-coded bars sit on screen while you play. You always know where you stand without opening anything.
Old-Gui

> The Old UI is Nourished's legacy interface system used by earlier versions of the mod. It provides the original HUD and Diet Screen interaction and layout functionality before the introduction of the modular Dynamic UI system.
> The system relies on the original interaction-based controls for configuring UI elements and is retained primarily for compatibility with older implementations.
# Features:
- Legacy Nourished HUD interface
- Original Diet Screen layout system
- Interaction-based UI controls
- Original UI positioning and sizing functionality
- Compatibility with older Nourished implementations
> The Old UI is maintained as a legacy system and is gradually being replaced by the more flexible Dynamic UI framework
> Press Key-Bind in-game to enter. Drag it anywhere, resize it.
Dynamic-Gui
!(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/586c4927ad6416e61bae6c89a61fd2558ee7dd01.png)
> Dynamic UI is Nourished's modular interface system, designed to make the HUD and Diet Screen highly configurable without relying on hardcoded layouts.
> UI elements are organized into independent modules that can be customized individually, including their position, size, colors, and other visual properties. This allows the interface to be adjusted to fit different screen resolutions, UI layouts, and player preferences.
>The system is designed to be extensible, making it possible to add new UI modules and customization options without rebuilding the entire interface.
# Features:
- Modular UI components
- Movable UI elements
- Adjustable module sizes
- Configurable colors
- Independent module configuration
- Reusable UI architecture
- Designed for future customization options
- Used by both the Nourished HUD and Diet Screen
> Dynamic UI replaces Nourished's older interaction-based UI controls with a proper modular editing system, providing a cleaner foundation for expanding UI customization over time.

| What you see | | | -------------------- | --------------------------------------- | | Trend arrows | Whether each group is rising or falling | | Balance score | How evenly spread your nutrition is | | Active effects | What your current diet is doing to you | | Calorie tracking | Daily intake at a glance | | Recently eaten | What you've had lately | | Neglected categories | What you should probably eat next |
🏆 Milestones & Achievements
> Eating consistently pays off over time. Nourished tracks cumulative intake per food group and grants milestone rewards as you build healthy ha~~~~bits.

> Each food group has its own three-tier progression, beginner, journeyman, master, plus a hidden "perfectly balanced" milestone for maintaining all Five groups at once. Milestones grant a temporary buff and unlock an entry in your Advancements tab.
> Milestone goals, reward effects, and durations are fully configurable, and modpack authors can register entirely custom milestones through datapacks.
❤️ What you gain
When all five food groups are above 75%, you get: - Health Boost I: passively while balanced - Regeneration I: passively while balanced
Let any single group drop below 25% and a debuff kicks in:
| Group | Neglect Penalty | | ------------- | ---------------- | | 🌾 Grains | Weakness I | | 🥦 Vegetables | Slowness I | | 🥩 Proteins | Mining Fatigue I | | 🍎 Fruits
