Natural Healing Control
by EIG
Natural Healing Control lets server owners change how natural regeneration, food exhaustion and starvation behave, including on peaceful difficulty.
What it does
The mod gives a server control over natural regeneration and food exhaustion. Regeneration can be slowed so that health does not recover rapidly from saturation, and hunger drain can be disabled or allowed to cause lethal starvation damage, with peaceful difficulty included. Every option is configurable, and the defaults slow regeneration while leaving the rest of vanilla hunger in place. Because the food level is handled on the server, the server must run the mod, while clients may add it as well. Builds are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 and 1.21.11 under the MIT License, and the code is open source.
Key features
Regeneration rate control
Natural regeneration can be slowed or restored to vanilla speed, so saturation no longer heals health rapidly.
Hunger drain options
Food exhaustion can be turned off, or left on so that starvation deals lethal damage, including on peaceful.
Configurable defaults
Each hunger and regeneration setting is adjustable, and the default values can be reverted at any time.

What the author says
Fully configurable customization of natural regeneration and food exhaustion mechanics. Allows for hunger drain and lethal starvation damage on any difficulty, including peaceful. By default it makes natural regeneration slower and prevents rapid health recovery from saturation though you can of course turn this back…
