Spiritualise Food

Spiritualise Food is a Lunar spell released with Livid Farms on April 04, 2011. It can only be unlocked by training at the Livid Farm. It is cast on food in your inventory in order to heal a familiar. Once eaten by your follower the food will heal it, boost its combat stats and replenish its timer. This spell has a cooldown of two minutes, and can only be used once per familiar. The boosted combat stats are only temporary and decline back to normal as time goes on. Similar to if your familiar could drink stat boosting potions.

Better food will replenish more of the familiar's timer. For example, a lobster will extend the timer by five and a half minutes, and a shark will help by ten minutes. This spell can also be cast on food from herblore habitat, this is not advised because juju gumbo only gives 7.5 minutes on the timer.

Spiritualise Food costs per cast, not including the cost of food used and takes up 4 inventory spaces.

When tested with a Steel Titan the spell caused its max to be raised from 244 to 260 while its lifepoints remained at 7540 and combat level remained 230. This means none of its levels are changed; after 1 minute its max hit went down to 258. This makes the spell less useful as you can only do one cast of the spell per pouch. If used with a familiar before entering wilderness the familiar will lose its boost upon a player crossing the wall. The boost can be useful on spiritual mages slayer tasks, since they drop all the required runes needed, bringing down the required spaces down from four to one.

The only real uses of this spell are thus limited to the dueling arena, and training Runecrafting with a Spirit graahk or training Summoning with a Spirit kyatt as they are relatively expensive pouches and you can save on the cost of pouches as you can extend the timer on your familiars. Even if a player renews their pouch after they extend its timer they are still not allowed to recast Spiritualise food as it would count as using the spell twice on the same familiar.
