Does it ever reset so I can eat more wolf meat?

If you do end up with Intestinal Parasites, then it will take you 20 antibiotics or 10 Reishi Teas (Stalker) and 10 days to recover. The good news is that while you're kicking the parasites with antibiotics, you can continue to eat your fill of wolf meat. I hear it's worse on Interloper though.

I ate an entire bear in my last run. I had a stock of antibiotics and knew I wasn't going to run out for food poisoning, etc... and I just figured, what the heck, why not just sit around, craft, eat bear. Sleep, eat bear. Cook, eat bear. Chop wood, eat bear. etc...

Eating predator meat creates a risk of intestinal parasites. The first 3 pieces consumed result in a risk of 1%, 4% and 9% (these numbers are non-cumulative). Every additional pieces is +5%. Assuming you have the risk, roughly every 24 hours/day, the game determines whether you get the affliction. If not, the risk goes away until you eat more predator meat.

If you get the affliction, intestinal parasites, you have to carry out a prolonged treatment protocol, taking one dose of antibiotics or one cup of reishi tea, a day until you are healed. There is no way to "hurry up" the treatment. Consuming additional medications does nothing except expend them for no result. The game does not tell you when to take medication. It only keeps track of how many successful treatments you have done.

While "sick" your maximum Condition will start to decline by 2% a day and your fatigue is affected as well. You also cannot read any skill book. As noted, since you are already "sick" there is no effect to continuing to consume as much predator meat (cooked, of course) as you want while treating yourself. So there is some "good" to being sick.

I've had IP twice, Believe me you need to get to Lvl 5 Cooking ASAP! After that things do get easier in that aspect.

I have about 60 pounds of bear meat laying around stinking up my porch...I think I’ll go on a bear meat cook off just so I might reach Level 5...

There is an easy way, well, relatively easy way to raise the bow, the harvesting and cooking skill pretty fast. All you need is other food you can eat, a lot of firewood and if possible a nice supply of arrows. Lets say... almost mid game? Go out and kill wolves, you will do yourself a great favour number one, number two you can shoot them with the arrows, take em apart, cook the meat, use that meat as bait to lure in more wolves and while they eat kill them with a headshot. Again, you need a little stockpile of arrows and firewood for that. Its how I did it. little tip, leave some meta on the wolf carcass. As long as there is still something in the body, they wont respawn as fast from what Ive noticed.

The best solution to intestinal parasite risk is to get to level 5 cooking. If not being subject to food poisoning and intestinal parasites, excluding the consumption of raw meat, is not a good enough goad to try and get there as fast as possible, I don't know what is.

Fishing is one way to move things along, assuming you got the wood, the fishing tackle, and do it. Fish take half as long to cook as any piece of meat. You get weighty food, lamp oil and level up ice fishing as well.
