The page provides a cost analysis of the common ways of restoring HP and MP (omitting dropped items and other inapplicable ways of restoring).

Magical Mystery Juice

Magical mystery juice costs 100 meat or 95 meat if you are wearing Travoltan trousers. The amount of MP restored equals (1.5 * level) + (4 to 6). Note: If you are farming and using Magical mystery juice you should use this instead of the A Comfy Sofa when you have 333.4 or higher MPA (Meat Per Adventure) however there may be better alternatives at some level.

HP Restorers

For meat:

Source HP Gain Cost Meat per HP Notes
Medicinal Herb's medicinal herbs Full HP 100 Meat 6 @ 16.67 HP needed Requires access to The Smacketeria. Costs 1 spleen.
Doc Galaktik's Pungent Unguent 3-5 30 Meat (20 Meat post-quest) 7.5 (5)  
Doc Galaktik's Homeopathic Elixir 18-20 120 Meat (80 meat post-quest) 6.3 (4.21)  

For MP (last columns apply if you can cast spells with reduced MP):

Source HP Gain Cost MP/HP MP/HP (-1) MP/HP (-2) MP/HP (-3) Notes
Cannelloni Cocoon All HP 20 MP -- -- -- -- All HP
Disco Nap with Adventurer of Leisure 40 8 MP 0.2 0.175 0.15 0.125 Cures various effects
Tongue of the Walrus 30-40 10 MP 0.286 0.257 0.229 0.2 Cures Beaten Up and various other effects
Lasagna Bandages (non-combat) 10-30 6 MP 0.3 0.25 0.2 0.15
Saucy Salve 10-15 4 MP 0.32 0.24 0.16 0.08 Combat-only
Lasagna Bandages (combat) 10-20 6 MP 0.4 0.333 0.267 0.2
Disco Nap 20 8 MP 0.4 0.35 0.3 0.25 Cures various effects

In order to calculate Meat per HP, multiply Meat per MP by MP per HP.

Also worth noting:

  • Ailment Ointments are more cost-efficient than Disco Nap if you use soda water and have no modifiers.
  • Cannelloni Cocoon is the most efficient skill if you need to restore a sufficiently large number of HP. With no modifiers, that number is 70 HP; with a -1 modifier, that number is 78 HP; with a -2 modifier, that number is 92 HP; and with a -3 modifier, that number is 116 HP.

Restoring HP by buying MP-restores and healing

This page is in need of content.

The last resort is Doc Galaktik Tonic, available to everyone at any time. Note that before the herbs quest, it is cheaper to heal yourself using any of the skills listed below instead of using Doc Galaktik's other medicine (except Cannelloni Cocoon with less than 34 HP).
