Kingdom Come Deliverance 2: Food Poisoning Cure Guide

In the unforgiving world of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, even the simplest actions can have deadly consequences. Food poisoning is a real threat, but thankfully, there's a cure. This guide will show you how to avoid and treat this potentially fatal ailment.

Curing Food Poisoning in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

To combat food poisoning, Henry needs a digestive potion. There's no other way – waiting it out is a recipe for disaster. Fortunately, obtaining a digestive potion is relatively straightforward.

You can purchase a digestive potion from most apothecaries. Several vendors in Troskowitz, Trosky Castle, and the Nomads' Camp stock them for a few Groschen. This is the quickest solution for immediate relief.

For a more sustainable approach, consider buying the recipe from an apothecary and brewing your own potions. This allows you to create multiple potions, ensuring you're prepared for future emergencies. You'll need two thistles, two nettles, water, and one charcoal. Here's the brewing process:

1. Add both thistles to a cauldron of water and boil for two turns.
2. Grind the nettles using a pestle and mortar, then add them to the cauldron and boil for one turn.
3. Grind the charcoal and add it to the cauldron.
4. Finally, pour the potion.

Note: Bozhena's hut is generally the safest place to use an alchemy station without upsetting shopkeepers.

What Causes Food Poisoning in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2?

Preventing food poisoning is key. Always check the "Freshness" meter on your consumable items in your inventory. A red meter indicates a high risk of food poisoning. Only consume items with a white "Freshness" meter.

Investing in perks that slow food spoilage is a wise decision. Cooking or drying food also significantly extends its shelf life.
