# Parasitic Metabolism

When any held or equipped living item is damaged, every 30 ticks (~1.5 seconds) randomly pick an
item with the enchantment. And consume 1 food level from a **healthy** players food bar to
restore 5 nutrients to the picked item.

A healthy player has more than 10 health points (5 hearts) and a food level greater than 2.
