'''Saturation''' is an instant [[status effect]] that reduces the need for eating. It also prevents death by hunger if the player has no food.

== Effect ==
The Saturation  effect instantly replenishes {{hunger|1}} × level and 2 × level points of saturation{{only|java}}<ref>{{bug|MCPE-52353||Saturation status effect does not restore saturation points}}</ref>.

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 hunger bar. Negative levels decrease [[hunger]] and saturation.
