Green Hell: How to get proteins - all the info

In Green Hell, not all food is the same, as you need to pay attention to all three macronutrients. Protein is also one of them, and our guide explains how to get the vital proteins.

Nothing for vegetarians: in the jungle of Green Hell, you are compulsorily dependent on meat.

Proteins are relatively easy to obtain if you have the right equipment.

Green Hell: Proteins are a meaty affair

The food supply in Green Hell is closely based on reality. For proteins, this means:

• Proteins are primarily found in meat. It is therefore important to go hunting and build traps early in the game.
• Basically, the meat of all animals contains protein. However, there are differences in the amount. The rough rule of thumb is that the meat of larger animals (such as jaguars) gets more protein. The meat of a mouse, on the other hand, has only a small amount of protein.
• Practical: Some types of meat (for example, peccaries) bring you besides proteins in addition fats.
• In order not to get food poisoning, you must not eat meat raw. Cooking on the campfire is the fastest variant, by drying on the stand, on the other hand, the shelf life is particularly long.
• Apart from meat, you can also find proteins in eggs, which sometimes lie in bird nests.

With regular hunting trips you are always well supplied protein-wise. This has the positive side effect that you improve your weapon skills (such as with a bow or spear) on the side, just like the ability to disassemble animals, which increases the amount of extracted raw materials such as meat and bones.
