Plus your villagers don't always eat enough. You also want to teach them to eat, because they can half starve with a full bin of food because, they don't eat enough when you are away. If you work them too hard and their health goes down but they are not officially sick you can bet them up to full health slowly by forcing them to eat drink water and swim in the lagoon.



I have never ever taught my villagers to eat or drink, or forced them to eat or drink. They are quite capable of learning this on their own. I have never had a villager die from anything except old age, and I have done a lot of villages so far, most on hard. I do, however, teach all my villagers to be Trainee Healers, and if their red health tube goes down, I click on healing and that gives them a break, and they get healthy again quite soon. Studying the medical cactus improves their health.
