The more people there are, the greater the amount of food is needed. If there is not enough food to feed people in a specific place, then there is food shortage in that place.

When people do not get enough food, their health is affected. People become under nourished when they do not have enough food to eat. Undernourished children are more likely to get sick and sometimes, they die.
