How food works in Valheim
You start with 25 health and 50 stamina. Food adds to them, up to three foods at a time, and the bonus shrinks as each food's timer runs down. Health regeneration from food is the sum of the foods' regeneration, applied every ten seconds. Eitr, used by staves and other magic, comes only from food and drink.
All the values come from the game's own data: see the list of foods for them in a table, or open a food to see where to find it and how to cook it.
Questions
How many foods can I eat at once in Valheim?
Three. Each one adds its health, stamina and eitr to your base of 25 health and 50 stamina, and the three together decide how much you have until they wear off.
What is the best food combination?
It depends on what you need. The calculator searches every combination of three foods for the most health, the most stamina, the most of both together, the most eitr or the fastest health regeneration, among the foods in the game.
Does food lose its value over time?
Yes. A food gives its full value when you eat it and less as its timer runs down. You can eat the same food again once half of its time is gone.
Can I eat the same food twice?
Not at the same time. Each of the three slots needs a different food.
