About Nourished
From ModrinthNourished is a nutrition mod for NeoForge 1.21.1 that tracks 5 food groups, rewards a varied diet, and applies balance buffs and neglect penalties. Includes an on-screen HUD, diet screen, and configurable modules for servers and modpacks.
Minecraft's food system has always been simple: eat until you're full.
Nourished turns food into a configurable nutrition system for NeoForge 1.21.1. Track six food groups, build a varied diet, manage your calorie intake, and deal with the consequences of neglecting your nutrition.
Everything is modular and configurable, so Nourished can be adapted to your modpack or server rather than forcing a single way of playing. This applies across config, datapacks, KubeJS, custom nutrients, custom milestones, food overrides, compatibility, module toggles, and the in-game appearance editor.
> 🟢 Recommended Version > Always use the newest version of Nourished. Newer releases may include major feature, UI, compatibility, and bug-fix improvements over previous versions. Older versions are primarily intended for compatibility with existing modpacks. > > ⚠️ Upcoming Change: Classic UI Removal > The Classic UI will be removed in Nourished 0.2.8-beta. > > The newer Dynamic UI is now the recommended interface and will become the standard going forward. If you are still using the Classic UI, we recommend switching to the Dynamic UI before upgrading to 0.2.8.

Mini HUD
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
- Per-row dragging: reposition individual nutrient rows independently within the HUD box
- Fine-grained visibility rules: auto-hide zero-value bars, or hide/show bars above custom thresholds
- Shared edit-mode tabs for the Nutrient HUD, Calorie Log, and Activity Log panels, so only one is ever open at a time
> 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.
> 📸 Screenshots were taken with the PureBDCraft resource pack & custom edits. The UI works with vanilla textures, but will appear in the default Minecraft style.
Diet Screen
| What you see | What it means | | -------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | | Trend arrows | Whether each group is rising or falling | | Balance score | How evenly distributed your nutrition is | | Active effects | What your current diet is doing to you | | Calorie tracking | Daily calorie intake at a glance | | Recently eaten | What you've eaten recently | | Neglected categories | What you should probably eat next |
🎨 In-Game Appearance Editor
Every panel has its own Appearance window, opened alongside edit mode, for styling it without ever touching a config file.
Per-panel styling
- Background: opacity and shade
- Border: opacity and shade
- Text & icon brightness
- Vertical layout toggle (stack bars vertically instead of horizontally)
Per-nutrient bar colors
Every nutrient bar gets its own color slot, independent of the others. Recolor Grains, Vegetables, Proteins, Fruits, Sugars, and Dairy individually to match your pack or taste.
Glow
Each nutrient bar has its own glow, independently toggleable and tunable:
- Glow color
- Glow strength
Pulse / flash
Bars that are critical or low can pulse to draw your eye, tied into the same visibility system that auto-hides or reveals bars at custom thresholds.
Every setting here writes straight to config in the background, so anything you set through the in-game editor is saved automatically and shows up the same way in config/nourished/ if you'd rather hand-edit it later.
