Saturation is a status effect that restores hunger and saturation.

Effect

The Saturation effect instantly replenishes 1 () × level and 2 × level points of saturation‌^{[Java Edition only][1]}.

If the effect lasts longer than one tick, the player continues gaining 1 hunger point and 2 saturation points on each tick, with 20 ticks (1 second) completely replenishing the player's hunger bar and saturation. Negative levels decrease hunger and saturation.

Causes

Cause	Potency	Length	Notes
Suspicious Stew	I	0.30 seconds (6 ticks)‌[Bedrock Edition only] 0.35 seconds (7 ticks)‌[Java Edition only]	Must be crafted with Blue Orchid or Dandelion

Immune mobs

• Only players are affected by saturation as they are the only entities with a hunger system.
  • Despite this, Withers and ender dragons are immune to Saturation despite not being affected by it.

Notes

• All foods replenish food saturation, but none actually add the Saturation status effect, with the exception of suspicious stew crafted with a dandelion or blue orchid.
• Unlike other effects, when given to the player with the /effect command, it lasts for a set amount of ticks, instead of seconds.
