At noon soup was given with old Carrots and Rutabagas. Dinner was Stale bread with Margarine and Jam. Sometime they would NOT get Food....

∙ 9y agoThe people in the camps starved because they were not provided with enough of the right kinds of food to support their bodies. It is generally agreed upon that the jailers did not intend to treat them humanely.
Even more than this, if they were in an "extermination camp" ... the entire focus was on eventually killing them, even if this was done very slowly. Much of the starvation that occurred was NOT accidental. It was intentional, and this can be seen when you realize that the guards at the camps and the Nazi military all had enough to eat ... yet concentation camp inmates regularly died of starvation and illnesses related to inadequate nutrition and/or unsanitary conditions and water. On one occasion at Auschwitz, the conditions were so bad even those employed by the camp were threatened with disease. NOTHING at any of the death camps was designed to keep Jews alive because they were considered sub human by the Nazis anyway ... something to be exterminated. Thus, the so called "final solution" ... Thank God the Nazis did not win the war and continue their murderous practices and program!

People were starvd in the concentration camps. Hitler wanted to make their lives as miserable as possible so he would give them very little food and water and would make them work all day. Add that with the sleep deprivation and the prisoners were very prone to illness and eventually death.

What is a word meaning exhaustion from lack of food?
The one word that captures the state of disability from lack of food is Starvation. It would be proper to use starvation as a modifier of words such exhaustion, paralysis, catatonia, coma or other word for an inability to move. So, one might say starvation exhaustion to signify the feeling of having no energy left, one might say starvation coma to denote the state of being unable to consciously respond to stimuli, and in both cases the kind of consequence being due to lack of food, as opposed to say, a coma resulting from head trauma in a person receiving adequate nutrition during the period before the injury, or inability to move due to the introduction of a toxic substance, which might then be designated as traumatic coma or poisoning exhaustion.
