This page details all of the Raw Ingredients that are currently used in No Man’s Sky. The categories below aren’t officially used in-game, but we’ve created them to help break down the different types of ingredients available to you. Many of these ingredients can be used to create Edible Products when combined in a Nutrient Processor. However, they can also be consumed to replenish life support systems, increase hazard protection, or replenish health. If you don’t have any use for them in either of these ways, they can also be sold to visiting pilots at space stations, or at any Galactic Trade Terminal.
