Game Mechanics: stat raising food

[Divarin]

i think stat raising food might not be working. here's why:
I've been working on baking and have made some wolf steaks (+1 sta). this gives me 1 additional HP.

since I've been using this food my health never rises above 99%.
it does for a brief second but then immediately jumps down to 99%

I have come to understand that this happens when there is a disagreement between the game client & the server about how many max HP I have.

I suspect the server is not granting me the +1 sta, which may mean that stat raising food isn't working, or maybe just not wolf steaks.
