Stored calories is one of the hidden stats tracker for the calories stored by your character's organism.

What is it for?

• It's a value that keeps track of how many calories your body accumulated due to eating food and drinking caloric beverages.
• Whenever you digest food or drinks their nutrition is converted to body calories and stored in this value.
• On more down to earth terms this value tells you how fat or skinny you are.
• Stored calories are used to determine your hunger level. If you have low stored calories, you are malnourished and you feel more hunger.

What's the normal level?

• Normal, healthy level of stored calories is 55,000 kcal.
• Getting below that will push you towards malnutrition.
• Getting above that will push you towards obesity.
• Both extremes bring their own penalties, and finally death.

Tiers

There are tiers of stored calories, and there is a bit of an insight on them in the character status menu (@).
