Nuclear stomach
A micro-nuclear reactor combined with complex chemical synthesis replaces the body's need for food energy. Food is required only to replace matter lost from the body, reducing the user's intake needs significantly. This artifical [sic] stomach cannot get food poisoning. However, there is little room to shield the reactor, so the radiation increases the risk of cancer.

The Nuclear Stomach drastically reduces a pawn's hunger rate to just one-quarter of its normal value and prevents food poisoning, however it causes an elevated rate of cancer. Like a bionic stomach, it also provides 125% part efficiency. It can be crafted from 15 plasteel and 4 advanced components.
Cancers from this stomach occur on average once every 120 ingame days, on the torso. Without the cancer, the nuclear stomach would otherwise be a direct upgrade of the bionic stomach, the detoxifier stomach, and the reprocessor stomach.
Shocking a pawn with this stomach using EMP will force them to vomit.
Acquisition
Nuclear stomachs can be crafted at the fabrication bench once Artificial Metabolism, which requires a techprint, is researched. They require 15 plasteel and 4 advanced components and a crafting skill of 8.
Alternatively, they can purchased from traders and outlander and empire settlements.
Analysis
The nuclear stomach offers immunity to food poisoning and a dramatic reduction in hunger rate, in addition to the regular benefits as the Bionic stomach, so it can be considered a direct upgrade with the sole exception of the nuclear stomach being sensitive to EMP and cancer risk. The Detoxifier stomach
Like the bionic stomach, it has 125% part efficiency increasing metabolism by 8%. It can also be used to instantly treat gut worms as the new detoxifier stomach replaces the diseased part. With it installed, further infections are also prevented. The increased metabolism from a detoxifier stomach slightly improves the rest rate multiplier by about 8%, meaning the colonist will require less sleep. The detoxifier stomach is a cheaper way to reduce time sleeping than upgrading to a royal bed, however both can be combined.
Unlike the bionic stomach, EMPing a pawn with a detoxifier stomach will force them to vomit. While EMP-wielding enemies are relatively rare, friendly fire is a relevant concern on melee pawns as using EMP grenades and melee attackers on Centipedes is a common and successful tactic. Having a detoxifier stomach on those melee pawns will result in them vomiting and negatively affecting this tactic and others like it.

Trivia
Despite being called a Nuclear stomach, it does not require uranium to craft.
