Well, he wasn't really as human anymore. I mean, he had lost so much of his humanity by making those Horcruxes... Plus, when Nagini bit Arthur the stitches didn't work. Hermione suggested that perhaps something in the snake venom was keeping the stitches from staying together. It would be interesting that what could kill Arthur, would be the same thing that would give Vapormort sustenance.

Also, Voldemort didn't have a body. He was giving his soul a physical residence until he could resurrect a body for himself. I don't know what the magic was, but I remember reading about it somewhere in GoF. I'm pretty sure that Voldemort made the spell or whatever that kept him alive. Apparently it involved the venom of Nagini.

Conclusions: 1. It was indeed venom. 2. It was used as part of a potion, and probably the Unicorn blood (or some other ingredient) worked as an antidote against the poison. 3. Voldemort did have a body of some sort.

That is the bit that I was referring to earlier. What I meant when I said that Voldemort didn't have a body was that he had to have a temporary not-really-human body concocted for him.

I think that he drank the 'snake milk' in a potion and it made him a little stronger while he didn't have a normal body for all of those years.

you can milk some snakes but people dont actually drink it.
in hp it probably has magical properties.

I watch animal planet so I knew what it meant. I just believe that since Voldemort is mostly snake that he feeds on the venom of his magical snake.
