In the first game, Link's maximum health can reach 16 hearts. Link begins with 3 and earns a Heart Container with every dungeon boss defeated. There are 8 dungeon bosses giving Link a maximum of 11 hearts. The remaining 5 can be found across the land of [[Hyrule]] in caves. Inside these caves, the [[Old Man]] offers Link either a Heart Container or a [[Water of Life]].{{Ref|LoZ|57|[[Old Man]]}} It is not recommended to take the Life Potion instead of the Heart Container, because Link can purchase an unlimited amount at the [[Potion Shop (The Legend of Zelda)|Potion Shop]],{{Ref|LoZ|49|[[Old Woman]]}} but the Heart Container is gone forever if not chosen.

The second game is unique in the series as Link's health is represented by bars rather than by hearts. Link begins the game with 4 bars. Additional bars can be added by locating Heart Containers concealed within hidden locations across Hyrule. There are 4 Heart Containers in the game reaching a maximum of 8 bars. Link can also decrease the amount of damage he receives by increasing his Life level. Using the [[Shield Spell]] halves all damage taken, though only temporarily.
