Frequently asked questions

What does Saturation do in Minecraft?: Instantly fills your hunger and saturation bars. Even a very brief application keeps you full for a long time.
How long does Saturation last with the infinite command?: On Java Edition, the 'infinite' keyword makes the effect last until you manually clear it with /effect clear. On Bedrock, the maximum you can specify is 1,000,000 ticks (about 13.8 hours).
Does the Saturation command work in Bedrock Edition?: Yes — use the Bedrock command shown above. Bedrock syntax omits the 'give' subcommand and 'minecraft:' namespace prefix, and does not support the 'infinite' keyword.
